Golf Cart Tire Hub | Sizes, Types & Pressure Guide
A guide to golf cart tires, covering common flotation-like sizes (e.g., 18x8.50-8), tread types (turf, all-terrain), typical low pressures, and ply ratings.
Choosing the right tires for your golf cart depends on its use. This hub explains common golf cart tire sizes (e.g., 18x8.50-8), different tread types (turf-saver, all-terrain, off-road), typical low inflation pressures (15-25 PSI), and ply ratings for durability. Links to our Flotation Converter for understanding sizes. Essential for maintaining your golf cart's performance and protecting turf.
Golf cart tires often use flotation-like sizes (e.g., 18x8.50-8). This means 18" tall, 8.50" wide, for an 8" rim.
Turf/Street (gentle on grass), All-Terrain (mixed surfaces), and Off-Road (aggressive lugs for mud/trails).
Key Considerations:
- Tire Pressure: Typically low (15-25 PSI). Check tire sidewall for max pressure.
- Ply Rating: Indicates toughness (e.g., 4-ply, 6-ply). Higher ply is more puncture-resistant.
- Lift Kits: Lifted carts can accommodate larger tires, but ensure proper clearance.
Our Flotation Converter can help you understand the dimensions of these sizes.
Always ensure your chosen tires are compatible with your golf cart model and intended use.
