I worked in the auto industry for 38 yrs. & I'm no expert on drive trains but it makes sense to me that 8 in. tires will make the rear axle run faster & your engine will only pull the cart as fast as the engine will let you but 10 in. tires spin the rear axle slower so in turn the engine will spin the rear axle faster because the bigger tires will spin the axle less times. I asked this same question to my salesman when I bought my golf cart & he said bigger tires make no difference. So what's the difference, better ride? I disagree with the salesman. Bigger tires will make your cart run a little faster. The only con I can see is, don't complain if you get pulled over for going over 20 mph.
