Default 2014 RXV lift and tire size recommendations

Hello,

I have a 2014 RXV and thinking of lifting it no more then 3” or 4”

Can anyone give me the deck height from the floor to the deck ?

What size tires can fit , I think I was reading stock is 20.5” tire and up to a 22” tire with a 3” lift?

Jakes 3” spindle lift any good? Or should I look for a A-Arm lift?

I also notice the lift kits changed in 2014 vs 2013 and before. Did Ezgo change the cart in 2014?

Thanks for the help, we had several Club Presidents, An Onward, several Yamaha and now our first Ezgo :)

I'm still holding onto hope that they will fit with no modifications.
If not, I think this is the kit...

You're new here, but BU is a four letter word around here. Before my time, and I've been here a while, but there are more than a few refugees from there, that found their way here.

From.what I've read , those should fit no problem, it's the offset you have to watch.

Their good looking set !

Thanks Diver.

I'll report back to you on the fit.

This lady assured me that 22X9.5-12s fit with no lift.

You might want to rethink those tires with an Elite. The stock controller is all you have available, as there are no upgrade controllers that will work with the BMS built into the Elite battery pack. 21.7" tires are outside of the tire size range for the motor map that is built into the controller. I certainly would not want to try remapping an Elite for oversized tires. I can turn down the current of the stock controller to allow it to survive, but you're not going to be happy with the performance. The tire size limit of the stock controller is 20.5", if you are expecting decent performance and longevity.

Yuppirs, they are smaller than stock by a little bit. I went with 205/40R15 radial tires on my RXV. They fit real good and are about 20.5" high. With these tires my top end was 33 MPH, before I turned it down to 30.
