I would like feedback from professional grips on the subject of foam vs pneumatic tires for a 2' x 4' two shelf equipment dolly.
Every grip I've spoken with so far have recommended pneumatic... Their reasons:
- Foam tires can form a flat spot when left too long with a heavy load, but they do regain their shape overtime.
- Foam can be 'out of round' when cold or frozen.
- Will slowly disintegrate overtime.
- More effort need to push a cart with foam tires in mud and grass.
A rental company, told me they converted to foam, but overtime the foam separated from the rubber and rim... so they switched back.
This has been a small survey so far, looking forward to more opinions.
Thanks in advance,
