Default 14 inch wheels under a non lifted yamaha drive?

I am looking at stuffing some 205 x 30-14 efx low profile tires on some 14 inch fairway alloys sixer wheels. I have a rear seat and have seen photos of this combo and I have been golf they fit but will I have issues with clearance? I have a 2007 yamaha drive

Yep, they fit. Be sure to check on the backspacing to be sure they wont stick way out of the fenders and rub the fenders when you hit a bump.

after several different responses I went with a 12" FA Elixir with the pro rider tires rather than the low pro. Better ride and speed with this tire from what I was told. I will post pics when I get them on!

Taller tire profile than "30" may equal trouble. Also drill small hole in mudflap and bumper to pin the mudflap into bumper with a "christmas tree" fastner, will help with rubbing on back tire.

May have to trim your Rocker panel at the rear. I had to trim mines to clear 23" tires with a 6 lift. - Mayor

What size did you end up goin with? I have the same cart and I am wanting to put 12's on mine. I want the biggest tire I can put on without rubbing. Also what offset wheel did you go with?
