On the side of your new tires, does it say "205/65-10" or "205/65-R10"?

You can run the Radial as low as 16 PSI and still have decent tread life...A trade-off you will no doubt accept to save your back. I called the villages golf car and they do carry the Roadhawk Steel Belted Radial 205/65-10 for $90 each. I would suggest replacing your 2 back tires at a minimum.

I didn't need new tires but I got 4 Roadhawks tires at $70 each so I couldn't say "No" to that.
