2001 Club Cart DS, cheapest way to increase speed

trevinom · 01-15-2019, 09:14 AM

My cart is a tad 'slow', I've clocked it at around 12 MPH.
After reading around the net and in this board, I don't want to upgrade the controller or the motor. I was thinking just the tires.

I have stock 18x8.5-8 tires, so I was thinking of maybe going to 20x8.5-8.
Or, if they don't make those, 20x10-8.
How much speed would that get me?
Even just a couple of MPH would be fine.

Also, I was thinking of only doing it to the rear tires so that I don't have the issue where turning would scrape the sides on the front.

Any comments?
