Default Switching tires
I have a 2010 Star cart and it is in need of new tires. The existing tires are 205 50 10 and I am considering having 205 65 10 tires installed. There appears to be plenty of clearance for the higher profile tires, but I was wondering if there are other issues I am unaware of. Are there any performance or safety issues? I have heard some people say they had 65s on the rear and 50s on the front - is that a good idea, and why? Thanx in advance for your advice.
