What lift kit and tires to use on a G9???

b.raven70 · 07-24-2008, 02:22 PM

Have a 91 G9. I want to lift it about 6" and put about 22" tires on it. What is the best lift kit for this cart without going to a $600 long travel (willing to spend about $300)? I also want to keep the cart quiet and smooth as possible. Its almost always on pavement, but occassionally will be in dirt. If I go with a all terrain tire is it going to be louder and rougher than a street tire on pavement? Anybody have all terrain tires on there cart that can tell me if they are any louder than street tires? Thanks!

I have all-trails on the rear of my cart and they are just as loud as normal cart tires when aired up to 22psi. They also offer a smoother ride because of the bigger sidewall.

I also run Alltrails and are a great riding tire. Only complaint (which isnt really a complaint) is that they fill up with mud very easily so if your trying to go through any wet stuff your defiently gona end up with it all over your cart and yourself.

another option is the Vtrax. They are just quiet as my Saharas with a little more aggressive tread. Wear very well also
I think the V-Trax look a look more aggressive.

They will fill up with mud also. Just not as quick as the all trail.

I ordered the Jakes 6" lift and waiting for it to arrive. I guess i will probably go with the all trail tires. Thanks, for everybody's input.
