Most of the Bellman Carts and Utility Carts that we sell at Bellman Cart Solutions come with Solid or Pneumatic Tires.  The exceptions are:

So…Pneumatic or Solid?

Here are the pro’s and cons of each.

Pros for Pneumatic Tires / Cons for Solid Wheels:

  • Pneumatic Tires are quieter than Solid
  • Softer, smoother ride than solid

Cons for Pneumatic Tires / Pros for Solid Wheels:

  • Some customers have said that Carts with Pneumatic Tires can be harder to maneuver because of the tire being wider than a Solid Wheel
  • Pneumatic Tires can squat when large amounts of luggage are being transported, making it more difficult to push or pull
  • Pneumatic Tires may require some occasional maintenance, Solid Wheels generally do not require maintenance
  • Solid Wheels are less expensive to replace than Pneumatic Tires when the time comes

Hopefully this information will help when you’re shopping for a Bellman Cart at Bellman Cart Solutions.
