Club Car tires..why low profile

[ranman]

I am running 205/50/10 tires, Low Profile tires, on my 2005 CC precedent. I want to know what problems I will have if I run standard gofl cart tires, not low profile , on the cart

[COURTESYCART]

None. they are the same as a 18x8.5x8.

I presume that 205/65-10 tires will be ok to use since they are 2.7 inch taller

65 over 50 is 15mm difference or just over 1/2" overall rolling diameter iirc. Where did you get 2.7" from ?

The second number in a tire size nomenclature is Aspect Ratio, or tire sidewall height over tread width. It is a percentage, not a linear measurement.
