Default Tire Size

We put a 4" EZGO lift and HD springs on our TXT. We cant decide if we want 20" or 22" tires. We are going to be using the Carlisle Trail Wolfs either way. Will the extra 2" make a difference. It has a 500 amp controller with the stock motor. It will be used as a hunting buggy.
Thanks

my vote would be the 22", because you'll ending up wishing you had 12"rims and 23"+...lol. I have 22" Calisle All Trail on my 10" rims, great tire for road and light off road...no mud.

I just cant figure out if the 22" will use more battery and power than the 20". Or if it will be a noticeable gain in power loss. I think the 20" will look to small with that lift. The 18" tires on it now look tiny.

I would vote for 22" also, 20" are kinda an oddball size. I've had 20" tires on a 4" lifted cart and it looked goofy. I doubt you'll have any problems with a 500 amp controller or that you'll notice any big difference in run time between the two, in reality there's only an inch difference between the two from the center of the axle.

What would be a light 22" tire? We are thinking about the dirt devils also. Which would be lighter out of the Carlisle Trail Wolf and Dirt Devil? It is going on a hunting buggy so a lighter tire with better traction would be best.
Thanks

I have 22" Strykers on an old 2 stroke marathon and they do fine and don't weigh nearly as much as a 489 or Dirt Devil
