†Disclaimer: This chart assumes that the golf cart has relatively new suspension parts. If your golf cart has older, worn-out suspension, it might affect the clearance and cause tires to rub against the cart body. It's a good idea to check your cart's suspension for the best fit.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What's the difference between radial and steel-belted tires for golf carts?
A: Radial tires offer flexibility and comfort by allowing the sidewall and the tread to function as two independent features, enhancing overall performance. Steel-belted tires, reinforced with steel, offer increased durability and a smoother ride, making them ideal for higher speeds and longer distances.

Q: Can I use the same tires for all terrains on my golf cart?
A: While all-terrain tires provide versatility across different surfaces, choosing tires specific to your primary use case (street, turf, or off-road) ensures optimal performance and longevity. For varied conditions, all-terrain tires are a good compromise.

Q: How do tire ply ratings affect golf cart performance?
A: The ply rating indicates the tire's strength and capacity for load and inflation pressure. Higher ply ratings generally mean the tire can handle more weight and rougher terrain, improving durability and safety for heavy-duty or off-road use.

Q: What maintenance do golf cart tires require?
Regularly check tire pressure, tread depth, and inspect for signs of wear or damage. Keeping tires properly inflated and aligned extends their life and ensures safe, efficient operation.

Q: How can I improve the ride comfort of my golf cart?
Choosing the right tire type for your needs is key. Radial tires, for example, offer a smoother ride on hard surfaces. Also, regular maintenance, including checking tire pressure and alignment, enhances comfort.

Q: Are larger tires better for my golf cart?
Larger tires can improve ground clearance and may enhance off-road capability. However, they might require modifications, such as a lift kit, to fit properly and avoid rubbing against the golf cart's body or frame.

Q: Do I need special tires for golf cart racing?
For racing or high-speed applications, consider high-performance tires designed for enhanced grip, speed, and durability. Ensure they're compatible with your golf cart's specifications and intended use.
