Default EzGo tire size

Folks,

I have a cart I bought that I am not aware if it has been lifted or not (if it has, it has been minimal), and I am looking change my tires (18" vertical height) to larger tires (20" to 23").

If I look at my EzGo "tire area" - both front and back, I have an easy 3 inches of clearance between the highest area on my current 18" tires and any area of the cart (body, suspension, parts). I verified this measurement in "center" and "full right and full left" steering positions as well as the rears.

If I change to 22-23" tires, I assume this would result in 1/2 the "tire height growth" in the top area of the tire (where it would run on the body, suspension, parts).

Is this a wrong assumption?

Thx in advance.

I think the most you can go is to a 20" tire without it scrubbing and in certain situations these might depending on rim offset, tire width, ect.

Yes going from a 18" tire to a bigger tire should result with 1/2 the difference on each side of the rim, but you'll see a little more on the sides that aren't touching the ground as that is flattened out due to the weight of the cart.

The most likely place you will rub first is a front tire into the fender when turning on uneven ground.
