Default 2015 RXV Tire/Wheel size

Hi. Relatively new here and appreciate the shared wisdom. I have a 2015 EZGO RXV that is stock everything including ride height and wheels. I'd like to buy a set of wheels and tires but I don't want to add a lift kit right now. I want to make sure that I don't exceed the optimum tire diameter for my cart to 1) ensure no rubbing and 2) not over tax the stock controller. Doing some searching on the forum, I think I can go up to 20.5" diameter without either issue? I'm considering a 10" wheel with tire size 205-65-10. Right now, the cart is speed limited to 13 mph with 18" tall tires. I'm hoping to find someone local (Dallas area) to program it to up to 20 mph. I really have no interest in going any faster as I don't feel comfortable with teens in the house going faster than 20. Am I good on the 205-65-10 tires (20.5") with no lift and without over taxing the controller or losing too much torque?

Looks to me you did your home work. Your right on all your thinking...

The 205/65-10 tires will probably get you 22mph when you get Freedom mode activated.

My RXV is stock height and I have 20.5" tires. They are the maximum diameter that will fit without a lift kit. I have a rear seat and no rubbing happens.

My cart has 15" rims, so a little different than the set up you are looking at, but 20.5" tire will be fine.

To give you a visual how much clearance there is on a stock RXV with those tires:



I have the old Danaher controller and this cart will do 24.5 MPH, but I'm not comfortable at that speed except on long straight roads.

Thanks for the quick responses!

Chevota Guy, that's a great looking cart. Love that shade of blue.

All you guy's tire recommendations, are you talking with, or without the minor rear bumper trimming at the rear inboard edge of the rear wheel/bumper area? (That I have to do to just about every rxv).
