What size lift does a TXT need for 22 or 23" tires?

jonequest · 02-05-2014, 09:28 PM

My cart is currently running 12" wheels with slightly larger than stock tires and is not lifted. (see my avatar) I am thinking of lifting it enough to fit larger 22" or 23" tires and know I need a lift kit but don't want to look like an offroad truck. I regularly ride several kids on the cart and maybe even 2 adults or more so I cannot have rubber 1" from the body but don't want 8" of gap either if you know what I am saying. Would a 3" or 4" kit be high enough?

I did a 6 inch lift on mine that runs 22x11x8. Probably could get by with a 5" but they recommended 6"

I have multiple carts with the factory 4 inch lift. Run 22s on most but 23s depending on terrain.

I've got a 4" lift on my 2010 TXT PDS w/ 23's. I don't have a problem with turning mine neither left or right(doesn't rub). A 4" should be plenty.

That's what I was thinking too. 4" seems like enough. Can anyone posts pics running 23's with a 4" lift? Mine is a 2004 TXT.

If you look here, http://thegorrells.net/carts/ all of the lifted carts are on 22s except the camo workhorse on 23s. Sahara 22s and Kenda 23s

My 2007 TXT has a factory lift I think. I bought it second hand so i'm not 100% sure.
The wheels are 12x7 and tires are 23x10.50-12. I have no rubbing in turns or when it flexes offroad.

I like the stance of that last one but I know it's not a TXT.

Great pics, that helps me see what gets installed.

Nope, RXV but would look similar. Those were 12 inch lockers with 21 in VX tires
