99 club car front tire rubbing

northwoodsrick · 08-19-2009, 10:14 AM

Morning everyone. I have a 99 club car non -lifted I just put some 12" rims with lo pro 225-30-12 tires. the drivers side tire is rubbing on a square shaped plastic piece on the inner fender area when the wheel is turned to the left. any suggestions would be great thanks..

I don't know much about carts "yet", but there are turn stops on Jeeps that keep you from turning to sharp that keep your larger tires from rubbing. Does your cart have those?

Since no one had responded yet, I thought I would throw that out to you.

there are some spacers available from allsports( you can find them on everything carts site under wheel accessories i think) that raise the front up a bit. this will cure the rubbing issue

Heck, I wish I could find me some used 12" tires. I cant afford new, and nobody seems to have any used ones for sale. I figured with all of the projects going on someone would surely have an extra set.

Sounds like the tyre is rubbing on the air intake snorkel. Not much you can do about it other that than remove it. However if you remove you floor mat, you will notice that the snorkel also act as part of the floor, so you will need to tack in some alloy plate or cover the hole with some thin material after it is gone.

allsport maes a 1'' wheel spacer to move the tires out.it will set them even with the back and help out your turning problem.they only run about 30$ a set.
