When it comes time to replace them, is it better to go through a dealer or do people deal through local tire shops?
One last one, I tested my pressure today and most of my tires were below 15 psi. That seemed lower than what I've researched so I filled them up to 21 psi and the cart seems to accelerate smoother and the ride seems about the same, maybe even better on paths. What range of psi do most people go with. I have a 4 seater Yamaha gas.

If they are on 10 inch wheels, you need the pressure at 20 psi, 15 absolute minimum, as these are designed for use on highway trailers and 25 psi inflation. Rears wear faster than fronts, and at low inflation they run on the side edges of the tread, with the center squeezed up, rather than on the full width of the tread. Using a higher inflation is thus better for the turf because it distributes the vehicle weight on more tread.
