Re: 17"s and bigger
What is the overall height of the tire you want to use?

Re: 17"s and bigger
You will probably need 2" wheel spacers and a 6" lift. Here's a pic of mine.

Re: 17"s and bigger
Sorry I missed it was a EZGO. any 5" lift should clear the tires The lift on my build is a 6" long travel.

Re: 17"s and bigger
The rims are very deep. I know I could not put them on a trailer. I think you will need a lot of spacer.
