Most modify their/our rigs for either stability on the trail, which is a little wider foot print, some want the sporty look with the wider track... or both, a sporty look with the stability for the off road use. Then there are some simply don't care what it looks like, but need the extra offset simply to clear some tires that they "need" for a particular purpose. Hope this helps a little. |

Re: More Questions about wheels.
I notice on the "wicked" website that some of the "low profile" wheel and tire combo's show 215/35/12 tires and some show 235/30/12 tires. Yet both are 18.5 inches tall. What is the difference in appearance of these two tires?. Does one give the "appearance" of a bigger wheel/smaller sidewall over the other? What is the difference in appearance of these two tires. Given that I am only going to use this cart on smooth ground and/or pavement I'm not concerned about aggressive tread/traction but more interested in the "cool" factor.
Thanks Fred Mc. |

Re: More Questions about wheels.
Further to my question about wheel offset I have a couple of more questions.
I was told that a particular wheel had the following offset "-25ET (2.5+4.5)" and that the wheel would stick out approx 2 inches more than a stock wheel. This doesn't seem right to me. I presume the 25ET is mm which is approx 1 inch. Also the 2.5+4.5 indicates an offset of 1 inch. Am I interpreting this wrong or was the guy wrong when he said 2 inches? Thanks Fred Mc. |

Re: More Questions about wheels.
Ive noticed Duro tires that are 18/10.00-10
They look interesting but I haven't seen any pics of what they would actually look like on a cart. Anyone have thoughts about theses tires and where I might see them on a cart. Thanks Fred Mc. |
