Re: New Wheels/Tires
Thanks Becker. I have not had time to put them on since I received them. But I will report how they fit once I have time.

Re: New Wheels/Tires
Man, I can’t wait to hear how these fit. I have a i40, and want to mount 215/50-12’s on it. Between the rough ride and lack of clearance, I would love the extra rubber.

Re: New Wheels/Tires
Did you ever figure out how to stop the rubbing? I'm not lifted and don't think the cut out in the wheel well will work, probably need to remove too much material.

Re: New Wheels/Tires
Hello again. Here is my delayed follow-up to my earlier post about a wheel and tire upgrade on my i20 to a 205/65-10 (I have been out of action due to a serious and lengthy back injury (not related to the jolting ride of my i20!!).
In my earliet post, I mentioned that the online tire vendor rep assured me the tire would fit the i20 and would not rub. Well, he was WRONG. The new wheel does not fit because the brake caliper prevents a clean mount. I called the company to advise of the (mis) information I received earlier from the company. The rep (different from the original) apologized and mentioned they have had quite a few wheel and tire issues lately with ICONS. The rep was very professional and understanding about the problem and suggested I look through their catalog for 12" wheel/tire combo. He also sent me a FedEx Return Ship label to return the tires, which occurred early last week at no cost to me. So I am back to square one on finding a larger wheel and tire for my i20 that will not rub. I do not want to mess with a lift kit (if that would even help), mainly because of my mechanical ignorance. I'm reluctant to go through the same online cart tire company based on my recent experience. I am also reluctant to go through my local ICON dealer because, frankly, it has not been timely in past unrelated inquiries to them. If anyone has had success with an online cart tire vendor with specific ICON experience, I am very interested in knowing. Apologies for the length of this update. |

Re: New Wheels/Tires
Thanks for the follow up. I think I'm going to buy 205x55x10 Loadstars. 2 ply Nylon. They come std on the new Club Car Onward Lithium and are great on my other cart. Once my tires wear down a little farther, I'm in. Only catch is I believe they are only made for Club Car so you must buy them from a Club Car dealer. No biggie, and reasonably priced, I think retail for around $95 and fit on our 10" rims.

Re: New Wheels/Tires
Any recommendations for tires for a lifted I60L? The knobby OEMs wear out too quickly, especially as I am strictly only street riding. Would be keeping OEM wheels.

I will be putting the Loadstar on the Advanced EV after more tread wears off. Running at 14 lbs so shouldn't take too long. Everyone here agrees 60's will fit without rubbing, but no longer can find a source, so 55's seam best without alternations. |
