Default Upgrading Wheel Set, soon.

2003 Yamaha G19e

Hey guys, as some of you know; I've had the Golf Cart Bug these past year and a half and have receieved a lot of good Help from Scotty B, CGtech, VoltAmper and Terry. And I rode with it and very satisfied through the route you guys helped me through. Steve at BOHenger and Vic at D&D as well.
I'm now considering getting some wheels next year and want to do my research early. I'm currently running a 10" chrome wheel with 205-50-10 tires on it (18" tall) Basically stock size. I would like to go with a 12" wheel and raise my overall height to 20".

Question 1. Do I have enough clearance?

Question 2. Do I need to pay attention to offset? Not much info out there.

Question 3. I noticed a slight sag in front camber when a couple passengers are in the cart. No leaks from front shocks/struts. Should I replace anyways because factory suspension is non adjustable?

NOTE: I don't want to lift cart; due to me wanting to still fit in garage; and I like the roof on my cart. The cart is street driver only.

Thanks for any input in advance. R/Kosmo

All very good questions! I went long travel with a 22x10 and have a clearance issue in the rear. Curious to see what others have to say.

2003 would be a G22-e, G19's were made 1997 to 2002. G19 and G22 front suspensions differ, so you will need to know for shure. Camber is controlled by a couple of things on a Yamaha, shocks/king pin and bushings and wheel bearings. Check for play in wheel bearings and king pin and bushings, if good, then shocks are worn. Some members have used a "half collar" at the bottom of the spring to save the shocks. Good luck
