Question about wheels for RXV
Hey guys I'm looking at putting 14 inch wheels on my non lifted Freedom RXV. The question I have is what offset do I need and which tire size. Don't really want them to stick out the side, I just like the look of a full wheel well. Thanks for any help!

Re: Question about wheels for RXV
I have an '09 RXV and I just put Fairway Alloy Bullets on my cart from KJ Motorsports.
Rim = 12x7 - 47mm Tire = 205x30-12 I am certain that the same wheel and tire combo upped to a 14 inch would fit without being too wide to stick out and without rubbing. I have lots of clearance. My only concern was I have a back seat and if you have four adults and hit a bump you may rub back tires. So the 205x30-14 tires with 14x7-47mm would be a good bet. They also sell these as a combo already mounted. |

Re: Question about wheels for RXV
They look awesome! They look like they fit well. 14's right?
What size are the tires. I wish I would have gone to the 14's. Very Sharp! Maybe I can find a buyer for my 12's. |

Re: Question about wheels for RXV
Thanks! I want to say they are 215/35's but I will make sure this afternoon. They are backlash tires so maybe you could find info on them.

Re: Question about wheels for RXV
Haha something like that. I learned years ago that patience is not my virtue! The rear seat and tinted windshield come in today. Now I have to decide which dash kit I want or if I want an overhead radio kit. Any ideas??

Re: Question about wheels for RXV
Fit was decent, but not perfect. My only issues with the purchase were mine came with no fasteners. Not a big deal, but was a little suprised at that. There are holes in it where the screws are meant which worked fine, but did take a little bit of time to get everything in there and snug to fit my liking.
Also there is only the hole for the radio and nothing to support it, so I used some metal pipe hangers to hang the radio and make it a tight fit. It takes some precision and patience since your only access to behind the radio is thru the speaker holes once you have it in place. The holes are 6 inch, which hold the 6 1/2 inch round speakers that are very common at wal-mart, best buy, etc. After I got mine all in and mounted up I will say that it looks like it fit perfect no issues now. And the radio sounds excellent! I have buddies at our campground that have 4 + speakers on there carts that don't sound any better than mine with two speakers. The advantage is the speakers are facing right at the driver and passenger and not below your legs or behind your head. Have had tons of compliments on it! Hope that helps. |
