Suggestion
 

I went with a compromise with my Yamaha. I went with 12 inch rims with radial tires. Both gave a nice look and a good ride. No change in overall rim/tire diameter so no loss of speed. There is a maximum diameter before the tires start rubbing on the body so check that out.

Yessss, go with the radials. Best all around ride.

You must not play executive courses. Lots of the executive courses in TV have a par 4 or 2. And no cart paths on these so you can drive in the fairways...

Note that, if you are trying to find a consistent written rule for this topic, you won't find one on The Villages website. There are at least five different sections about golf cars and tires, and they are contradictory. One rule says that you cannot drive on the executive course fairways, with no exceptions. But, another rule says that you can drive on the par four fairways, but it doesn't address the type of tires at all. Another rule contains a long list of approved tires that can be used on all courses. Another rule cites the tread depth, tire pressure, and tire width that are acceptable. So, I guess you can do whatever you want and hope you don't get cited for violating one of the rules. Obviously, the confusing golf car rules need to be edited and consolidated into one section of the website.

Wheels
 

I put 13” wheels and radial tires on my cart when it was built. I’ve had to replace the front tires twice. My guy who repairs carts said there was no way to toe in the wheels to adapt to the size. I feel every bump in the road because of the tires. Don’t do it.

I can just picture them trying to actually check and enforce the last item. You check in for golf, and the workers come out and check your tires with a gauge. LOL

Wanker is a term of endearment! We are all striving to share our personal preferences with the OP… sidewall height can make or break our vertebrae. I love all Villagers..

I play both Championship and Executive courses with my Evolution that came with the low profile tires. The Ambassadors ask me two questions when I check in with my cart, What color is it and where did you get those lights.....

Other than to complement the tires and wheels, no one has ever said anything to me about where I can drive and where I can't. I think there was a comment about ground clearance but on my cart, I have more clearance than many of the other carts...

Pretty sure they are more concerned about knobby tires that belong on ATV trails, not golf courses. Been seeing a lot of knobby tires on golf carts at the squares.

Not advised to use that term of endearment in many UK pubs.
Dental costs are quite high.
You might just get away with 'tosser' early in the evening!:icon_wink:

As a retired IG (Inspector General), that sounds like a great idea.

The tire sidewall is probably 70% of the suspension dampening.
