Default If I lift it what else??

I am lifting my new to me g2. Need some help...
1. What are the guidelines for how big of a lift/wheels?
2. I am also adding a rear seat, what else do I need add to the cart so it performs well?

It is currently stock and I plan to keep it that way as much as possible except for what is necessary to do these things. Thanks!

This was written for a club car but should be applicable


If your cart is a resistor cart I would highly recommend converting over to a controller before lifting it.

Here are the 2 G2s I’ve lifted

The G2 has a resistor coil drive system; this system has a high failure rate when big tires are installed. Bigger tires increase the load on the motor which increases the amperage draw which increases the the component operating temperature.

Does this apply to gassers? My cart is gas. I am unfamiliar with a resistor system. How do I check, or convert?

No, just electric carts. But you may still want more power with bigger tires

What are the best easy mods, if any, to do that with a stock motor?
