Wheel size question

ChevyRacing75 · 11-23-2010, 03:34 PM

If I were to buy tires size 27x12x12 I know I would obvioulsy need a 12 inch wheel but what about the width? All the cart wheels seem to be 12x7. Would that work?
Thanks

my fronts are 10" wide and the rears are 12" wide, on 12x7 rims my brother. It'll work.

ok just checking before I wasted money

Still shopping but getting sizes nailed down. I figure if I buy the wheels and tires first it will force me to buy the new lift for my cart

Its gonna be a couple weeks before I do anything though.

remember some places give a discount if you buy them at the same time!

Brett.... Wanted wider rims for my cart...the 12X7's were the widest I could find...It doesn't let the tires spread out like i would have wanted...

27's Chevy ? You know that won't help you keep the cart clean at CAW

Maybe a water tank so you could clean it as you rode around..

Maybe you should just go hit the mud bogg before we started and get it over with

and yes I know my yellow cart never even went out...

Those look nice. I think I am wanting to go with some black/aluminum rims though.

Why do these only say they go with low pros?

IMO, I'd keep looking around. If you get what you listed your about $170 each plus mounting. May not be a bad price but I'm too cheap

It will be a couple weeks before I buy anything. Maybe something will come up in the f/s section. There was a set that sold for $450 a week or 2 ago. If I had the cash I woulda been on that. If not I dont think thats a bad deal on what I have listed. I can use a coupon code on the wheels to get even more off
