Default E-Z-Go Golf Cart Tire Issue

I bought a new E-Z-Go golf cart 8 months ago. After 6 months I started noticing that after sitting over night, in the morning the ride was bumpy. Apparently the tires lose their "round" and cause a rough ride. It's even worse if the cart isn't used for a day or two.

Has anyone else had this problem and perhaps knows what causes it? I'm thinking that maybe the tires were old and not as flexible as they should be. Any information would be appreciated.

that was a common problem with golf cart tires in 2006-2007

In 2006 and 2007 starters had to inspect golf cart tires to see if they were approved to be driven on golf courses

Check the air pressure.

I've found that LoadStar seems to be the best Golf Cart Tire. I've had others that do exactly what you describe and don't get much better even in the summer after they warm up from driving. I bought a set @ Sam's that gave the bumpy ride. Sam's took the tires back and gave a full refund, then I bought a set of LoadStar from Tire Choice.

Dad's EZGO was terrible. He took it back to the dealer several times but always a terrible bump. Now it is replaced with a Yamaha. At last a good ride.
