Wheelchair Tires
Wheelchair tires, like car tires, can become damaged or lose their tread and become less effective. At Southwest Medical, we stock a large selection of replacement wheelchair tire options to choose from. Select from well known brands like Primo, Schwalbe and Cheng Shin in a variety of sizes.
These wheelchair tires fall into three tread category types:
- Regular - best all around tire that can be used indoors and outdoors without much issue.
- Knobby - bigger tread that provides better traction. Best performance outdoors.
- Smooth - less tread than regular sometimes on skinny tire. Easier to indoor movement.
Please note that most of the tires listed are sold as a single tire per purchase - rather than a pair. If you need to replace both wheelchair tires, confirm that a quantity of two is selected if the tire is listed as an 'each'. Also, many of these wheelchair tires will need either an air tube or solid insert that is NOT included with purchase.
Also located in this category, we have special tools to assist with the installation process.
If you need assistance determining which wheelchair tire will work best for you, please contact our friendly and knowledgeable customer service representatives who can go through your options and make recommendations for your specific situation.
