tire size power drain?

suzzie · 03-27-2016, 10:52 PM

Im running 23x11x12 rear and 23x10x12 front with 7" lift. they say with full charge I should get 10-15 miles. My question is with this tire size how much difference should I be planning on loosing?

thanks:suzzie

On what? Doing what? Carrying what?

From previous post we know that your running a 36 volt EZGO and that 10 to 15 miles with stock tires on flat land is the norm... Adding 25" tires is going to cut into that distance quite a lot. How much is an unknown factor only you can find out out by real life testing. Taking a WAG I'd say you may be down to 10 miles at best as those are some really big and heavy tires to swing when the stockers were 18" (?) or so tall...

Yea I need to take it for a long drive to find out. 10 miles would be good. im planning to use it to hunt with. The tires are big with knoby tread. I posted them as being 23" but they are 25" and make it look bad as hell, 2006-2009 ezgo not really sure what year.
Thanks for the 5 mile loss reply,sounds probably rite to me.
