If your forklift takes an 815×15 tyre, you’re running a heavy machine — and that machine deserves the right rubber. GP Forklifts stocks GP Solid 815×15 tyres in Johannesburg, built for the demands of heavy industrial and large-capacity warehouse operations across South Africa.
The 815x15 refers to a tyre that's 8.15 inches wide on a 15-inch rim — a large solid tyre typically found on high-capacity counterbalance forklifts in the 4-tonne to 7-tonne range. These machines move heavy steel, bulk materials, and oversized loads in environments that put extreme demands on every component — including the tyres.
At this end of the weight spectrum, tyre quality has a direct impact on machine stability and operator safety. A low-quality tyre on a fully loaded 5-tonne forklift is not just a maintenance risk — it’s a serious safety risk. GP Solid tyres are built with the compound hardness and structural integrity that large forklifts need:
01
Heavy-load rated construction — no deformation or flat-spotting under sustained high tonnage
02
Puncture-proof — no pneumatic risk when operating near sharp metal, offcuts, or structural debris
03
Stable contact patch — maintains consistent traction and handling under full load
04
Long tread life — reduces re-tyre frequency on expensive high-capacity machines
05
Consistent performance in South Africa’s hot industrial environments
The 815×15 is typically found on large-capacity LPG, diesel, and electric counterbalance forklifts. We supply this size for machines including:
Toyota 7FD45 to 7FD70 diesel and LPG heavy-duty forklifts
Linde H50 to H70 diesel counterbalance range
Hyster H5.0 to H7.0 XT series
Yale GDP50 to GDP70 series
Komatsu FD50 and FD60 series
Doosan G45S to G70S LPG and diesel models
Mitsubishi FD45 to FD70 diesel series
Not sure if this size fits your machine? Check the tyre sidewall or the placard inside your forklift’s door frame. Still unsure — call us and we’ll confirm it before anything gets ordered.
This size is common in some of South Africa’s most demanding operating environments — the kind of industries where a forklift out of action is not just inconvenient, it halts production:
We keep large-format sizes like the 815x15 in stock because our industrial clients in Johannesburg and across Gauteng need fast supply — especially when a heavy machine goes down mid-shift. Get in touch and we'll have a quote back to you quickly.
