Re: 14 tires on an RXV?
Not totally true, several bigger "overall diameter" wheel/tire combos will fit without rubbing. I think -10 to -20mm backspacing should be good. Any positive spacing will result in outer tire treads rubbing on floorboard stuff, and "sticking out the sides" look. (now i am looking for fender flares).

Re: 14 tires on an RXV?
Smoky, I recently put some 205/30-14 on my unlifted RXV and they fit fine. No problems at all. Almost wish I went with a bit larger tire to add some sidewall. There is plenty of room.

I'm getting ready to place an order for 14" wheels and street tires for an RXV. It's clear that the 205/30-14 will fit, but how about a 225/40-14? Specifically the Duro Excel Touring tire. Is it true to size? I will be putting the tires on a 14x7 ET-25 wheel. I've seen pictures of the 205/30-14 and they look just a little too small for a stock height RXV. I have also read that the rear will require some trimming to fit a 21" diameter tire. Is it plastic trimming or metal trimming? Edit: I found more threads that I didn't see before. This thread says they'll fit with trimming. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...-14-tires.html This thread says that 21" tires need a lift in the rear. http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...-ezgo-rxv.html Does anyone know for certain? Or is it maybe dependent on if heavy duty springs have been installed? |

Re: 14 tires on an RXV?
The trimming i do when installing 14" wheels on an rxv, is plastic, It is actually part of the rear bumper assembly.
You trim it inside the wheel well. |

Re: 14 tires on an RXV?
I ordered a set of 14x7 wheels and the 21" Duro tires. I'll report back with a picture, if they fit.

No picture yet, because it's raining out and I can't get a good shot in the poor lighting. |
