8" on the rear?

Anyone run 8" wide 22 or 23" tires on the rear? They are a lot cheaper and would rob less hp just wondering what ti would look like. Any pics?

I have 21"/10"-8 tires on my wife's G16,They are about the same width as the rim,the sidewalls are straight up from the rim.It does good,but I prefer wider tires,especially when you hit deep puddles at speed.Wide tires will hydroplane over,where the skinny ones dig in,and you get wet.My cart has wide tires all around,so I've done a lot of comparison runs.
