10,500 miles on my stock Kenda tires, with at least another 5000 miles to go. Wearing perfectly even across the tread.
What’s not to like?

Thanks! I was looking for some first hand experience who had them installed. I called Costco yesterday and they were sold out and will be getting more in this week. According to the guy I spoke with they usually sell out pretty fast so they must be a lot of carts with them.

I’ll go with the Kenda Load Stars on the 2014 Yamaha EFI when it needs tires since the original set is still going strong after 25 K miles. On the other hand, I might try the Costco tires on the 2022 Quiet Tech, which seems to eat a set of tires about every 5 K miles. The negative camber setting on the front end really wears tires quickly, even with a rotation after about 2.5 K miles. I wish the Quiet Tech had the same front end set up as the older G29 carts.

If you look up the spindle part numbers (if there there difference) you might be able to order the older model spindles? Or it may be the independent suspension causing problem. Had friend that had his adjusted that helped wear some on models that had that problem. If you pit wheels straight and look like they are pointing out toeing them in might help. Very easy to check alignment, just make X in center tire facing forward, take measurement center to center on Xs rhe rotate 180 degree to back side and take measurements. See what different is?

I get rid of aluminum mag wheels, brought set new pull offs with steel rims, I can now change my own tires. The thin bead on steel rims makes it lot easier to get tires off rim.

The tire center at the new Walmart at SR-44/Morse is set up to mount golf cart tires on aluminum wheels, and charges $10.00 each. You would, however, have to remove the wheels from your cart and take them in. The Villages Golf Cars quoted me a price of $141.95 each for the Kenda 205/65 R10, which is the direct replacement for the tires that came on my cart.

Going with the golf cart store option would certainly be the "hassle free" option...take the cart to the shop, drop it off, pick it up with a new set of tires. But, I am certainly capable of removing the wheels from the cart, and taking them to Walmart to mount the new tires. Doing that will save me about $260.00. Some folks might not be able to do that, which I understand.

I purchased the Fusion tire from on online seller. They handled well but had a little more road noise. Unfortunately, they barely lasted one year even with constant monitoring of the pressure and regular rotation. I would not recommend.b

May want to have the alignment checked on the 2022. I have a 24, wearing perfectly with 10k.

We do not have an odometer. There is an hour meter-too lazy to look. We are here full time use the golf cart every day we also have the Kenda tires and they are 12 years old. Reading because not much tread left. I seem to recall when I did my reading the Yamaha engine expected life is 30,000 miles. Amazing as it does not have a pressure lube system or an oil filter.

That's because it's basically a riding lawn mover without the blade.

An update about the Costco golf cart tires. They were finally back in stock so I took the tires and wheels in yesterday. I went to the tire service desk only to be told that they stopped selling them yesterday as they were getting complaints that the tires were out of round. They are working with the manufacturer as they do not know if it is a manufacturing issue or a shipping issue. It sounds like if you are having issues with the tires you bought there they are offering some compensation.
