these are 5psi tires and should be a high rolling resistance tire-eating torque and hp....

be careful about the tire sizes listed on the sidewall-they are often not accurate... non lifted carts should beware....roll:

True ! but the ones I have now are no better, mine currently have about 10psi , which makes for a bumpy ride, I've just been debating dropping down a size to lessen the load on the motor and batteries. If anything the GBC's are probably harder to get to turn over.

yep!

Low pressure tires rolling on a hard smooth surface take extra power to make roll. Off road on soft/bumpy surface they will roll easier than hard tires. More flotation and the ability to absorb/conform to surface irregularities lessen the required power. The trick is finding the right balance between the 2 conditions.

I run these tires on my cart. 5lbs in the front and 8lbs in the rear. I mostly run offroad with them but they do fine on the pavement. I have plenty of torque and can ride for miles on them. I just run at high speed on the pavement and the tires clean up well.
