Based on comments Tire Choice is not the best choice.

Sam's club--best deal-stayed away from Tire Choice, unless you enjoy getting raped

chuckinca 09-14-2015 02:13 PM

Walmart - is cart accessible and includes installation.

Make sure you get high speed balancing & emergency road service--a Tire Choice special

Another vote for Wal-Mart, nothing wrong with Sam's Club, but is not golf cart accessible.

I priced tires a year ago and found The Villages golf cart store was the best price

Topspinmo 09-14-2015 03:06 PM

Were ever you go I would make sure they Torque the lug bolts and NOT 90 to 100 foot pounds like cars. I rotated my tires and the lug nuts was way over torqued. I was spinning the front tires with the weight of the cart on them. I think they (they who ever originally installed them?) hammered them on with impact gun?
I finely got them off. IMO golf cart lug nuts don't need torqued over 50 foot pounds? I torqued mine to 40 foot pounds and going to check see if that was enough in few miles?

We received the best price and service at the golf store in Lake Sumter, we also did a lot of checking before.

Yahama Owners manual for old Gas Cart (paid for) sez 58 ft-lbs torque.

Electric carts are heavier and will be different.

Walmart does not mount tires on aluminum wheels.

I ordered tires from Amazon and had them installed on for $6 apiece at the club car place in Lake Sumter.

All three of The Villages Golf Cars garages sell them installed, they have nice time also.

The villages golf cart stores keep mentioning "radial tires" in their ads. If they are available in your size they would be worth a look.

Is that steel rims or aftermarket aluminum? I would think aluminum would less?

chuckinca 09-17-2015 10:35 AM

Manual didn't say - imagine that the tires need to be fully inflated to operate properly.
