Default 14" LowPro Recommendations

Looking at some LowPro options for a 2011 Precedent. I am assuming HD Springs in rear, but will I have rubbing issues up front with the 14's?
Looking at a set from MadJax, but also RedHawk.
Would I be better off with 12's?
Thanks in advance...

I have put 14" Wheels, with 21" Low Profile tires on my @012 Precedent.
I made a 1" lift block for the front, and I had to cut My rear fenders 2" with HD springs to make them fit without rubbing

Take a look at mine, and let me know what you decide to do

Hope this helps

Thanks Dale! Your cart looks great! Sharp!
I think I may go with 12's as they are offered in the same style.
Which seat kit is that? I like the look of not having to remove the S.A.M. Assembly.

Rim size does not matter... Tire size is what counts. 19 inches total tire height with no lift and proper back spacing most likely would fit with no lift.

I MODDED My rear seat kit so I did not have to remove the basket
They sell some from Red Hawk that look like mine

I am in the process of building another rear seat without the flip seat, and I will make it with a flip up foot rest, and make it out of aluminum to reduce the over all weight of the unit

My Rims are 14" and the tire size is 21"
I HAD to raise the front 1" with an Aluminum block

I took off the plate from under the cart, got a piece of aluminum
6" long X 4" wide X 1" think
I put the plate over it and drilled out the holes EXACTLY the same
The CENTER HOLE was drilled 7'8" to allow adjusting the camber
I installed 2 1/2" Stainless Steel all thread bolts from the TOP SIDE and installed the plate between the upper frame and the spring. I had to remove the shocks to do this and then jack the spring back into the shocks
I used Stainless Steel NyLoc Nuts to retain everything.

On the rean, I tooksome Stainless Steel, removed the stock shackles and duplicated them 1" longer then the stock units. I installed the Heavy Duty Springs and the 1" Shackles in the rear. Had to re-route the drivers side brake cable to fit, but is was no problem.

Then I took My Jig Saw, I let it rub my tire and starting at the rear of the cart, I cut the rear fender on each side. T took it for a ride and then cut it again after it settles in. Tital removed was 2" on each side of the rear fenders. Then I took My Air Die Grinder with a Soft Pad Sandpaper Buffing wheel about 1 1/2" diamiter and I cleaned up the edges
Looks factory and does not rub with 4 people riding on the cart

I will be making some front shock extensions this weekend out of Stainless Steel and installing them
This will soften My ride I think

Thanks for the compliments from everyone
