If you are pumping them up past that then just keep your eye on the tires as over pressure on these tires can cause rapid wear in the center of the tread.

22 psi is not the optimal pressure for proper tire wear. the tire will wear and not last as long.

I know for fact it does.

Would you be kind enough to let me know who you used as a remote golf cart tire service? Need 4 new tires for my wife's yamaha cartl;

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.

One thing you learn about dealers, whether they deal in cars or carts, taking anything to them for non-warranty work is the same as bending over and taking it up...you know! Walmart has golf cart tires & I would bet you could buy and get them mounted for less than these local golf cart repair guys. They will stick it to you also.

I have the little 8" tires & inflate them at 25 pounds. Anymore than that and the ride is too rough, plus the small tires ride rougher anyway. I just don't feel like the hassle of raising my cart & then the expense of the larger wheels & tires. I never rotate & run them until they are bald.

Could you please explain that to Roger Goodell.

22 psi is good for driving on turf, 32 is better for pavement. I keep our carts between 28 - 30 as they are primarily driven on pavement.

Yes, that is what I typically see. For those with the popular 10" Loadstar tires, I find 26-28 PSI works well in my 2-passenger Yamaha gas cart. Regarding tire pressure variation with temperature, for the range of temperatures in The Villages (about 30-95F), you can expect about a 4 PSI swing. If the pressure was set with a temperature of 60F then you will not be off by more than about 2 PSI at the extremes. Regardless, like you, I am checking and adjusting every month.

Check mine once month. Usually down 2 to 4 pounds. More in cooler weather.

Our 2011 Yamaha gas cart we got just over 9 years excellent wear on the Load Star tires at 22lbs with daily use and a lot of golf. No need to inflate higher but if you want a ride like a lumber wagon go ahead.
