6 Aspects of Golf Cart Wheel & Tire Sizes in 2024
Golf cart wheel and tire sizing can vary depending on the make and model of the golf cart, as well as the specific needs and preferences of the user. However, there are some general principles and standards that apply to most golf carts.
Wheel Diameter: Golf cart wheels typically range in diameter from 8 inches to 14 inches. Smaller diameter wheels are often found on older or utility-style carts, while larger diameter wheels are more commonly found on newer, custom, or lifted carts. The diameter of the wheel affects the overall height of the cart and can impact its stability and handling.
Tire Size: Golf cart tires come in a variety of sizes and tread patterns to suit different terrain and usage conditions. Common tire sizes for golf carts include 18x8.5-8, 18x9.5-8, 18x8.5-10, and 18x9.5-10. The first number in the size represents the overall diameter of the tire in inches, while the second number represents the width of the tire in inches, and the third number represents the diameter of the wheel the tire is designed to fit in inches.
Tread Pattern: The tread pattern of the tire can vary based on whether the cart will primarily be used on grass, pavement, sand, or other terrain types. For example, turf tires have a relatively shallow tread pattern and are designed for use on grass and other soft surfaces, while street tires have a smoother tread pattern and are better suited for pavement.
Lift Kits: Some golf cart owners choose to install lift kits to raise the height of the cart and provide clearance for larger wheels and tires. Lift kits are available in various heights, typically ranging from 3 inches to 6 inches or more. When installing a lift kit, it's important to ensure that the new wheel and tire sizes are compatible with the increased height and clearance provided by the lift.
Load Capacity: When selecting wheels and tires for a golf cart, it's important to consider the cart's load capacity and intended usage. Heavy-duty tires with reinforced construction may be necessary for carts that frequently carry passengers or cargo, especially on rough terrain.
Overall, selecting the right wheel and tire size for a golf cart involves considering factors such as diameter, tire size, tread pattern, lift kit compatibility, and load capacity to ensure optimal performance and safety.
