Want to go with car wheels instead

YourCustomCart · 03-16-2011, 12:06 AM

I'm in the process of customizing my 87 EZGO Marathon. I just finished up with a full engine rebuild and am ready to move on top other things. I really want to put some new and bigger wheels on it. I know the lug pattern for my EZGO is 4 x 4". I've researched and have determined that a 4 x 100mm wheel will fit (with a little persuasion perhaps).I want to go with some 17" wheels (maybe bigger) with a low-pro street tire.

I don't care about going up steep up hills, but it would be nice. This cart will typically be used at car shows and neighborhood driving. What kind of trouble am I going to run into?

Aweome! I was afraid that everyone was going to say it couldn't be done. I think I'm going to go with some factory Honda whels. I'll post after I get it finished. Thanks for the replies.

I'm in Concord. Enjoying a day without rain. Gotta clean up my show car for new show season and take some time to modify my EZGO.

I had these 18" wheels on my previous cart. I cant remember who made the adapters, but they are 4 X 4 to 4 X 100. Im sure it was a cart dealer in Florida, but I cant recall the name. If I think of it I will let you know.
