Default Best lift for comfort and ????'s

Does the lift or tires make the ride softer? What is the best lift for the money? We have a 1986 G2 gas cart. I seen the Jakes on e-bay for $299, and CPP's yamaha lift for $159. What is the difference between the long travel kits and the $299 jakes kit? Can I get 8" tires that look good with a lift or do I have to go with 10" wheels? What height lift should I get 5,6, or 7?

Thanks Mac

You can go with some 'lightweight' 20" x8x8 type tires that will go under a lift and fit the stock wheel and give a softer ride if the air pressure is kept low

Well I talked to Tom At CPP and went ahead and got the 7" All Sports unit that he sells with 8" wheels so I can use my hubcaps. Does anyone have any feedback on this lift?

Im running a All Sports 7 inch lift on my G16 and I love it. It doesnt ride as soft as I hoped for but I havent had any problems with it.

Do you have any pics of your G16 with the kit installed?

That picture is with the lift installed and running 20 inch tires.

This is another picture with 23 inch tires and the same lift.

The look really depends on your tires and wheels. In those pictures Im only running 20 inch tires. You can fit up 23 inch I belive maybe 25 inch tires on this lift.
