Default Wheels and tires

I am getting a 2017 Yamaha EFI delivered soon and will be replacing the factory wheels and tires on it

I can get 10 inch wheels with 205/65-10 tires or 12 inch wheels with 215/50-12, cost is similar.

The 215/50-12 tires are low profile but not extremely low profile

Just wondering what the experts here have to say on ride quality, steering etc for the two options.

I asked Villages Golf Carts and Carts and Clubs the same question and they both said they don't like putting 12 inch wheels on because of balancing problems. Wondering if this is BS as I see a lot of 12 inch wheels on carts here.

PS will be selling the brand new 10 inch wheels and tires that come with the cart
