to take your cart out on various
terrains; some are harder to
navigate in your golf cart than
others. That said, lift kits were
made to enhance navigation in
different paths, even the rough
ones. Installing a reliable lift kit
on your golf cart raises the ride
height, enabling better stability
when you drive. A lift kit also
creates room for larger tires,
so you can tackle more difficult
terrains without the struggle.
signs of wear and tear, such
as thinning treads, serious air
leaks, and cracks in the rubber. the tires, wheels, and under
the fender flares and not your
whole golf cart.
When you see these signs, it’s
time to say goodbye to your old
tires and get new replacements.
Ignoring and driving with worn
or damaged tires may cause ac-
cidents that can lead to serious
injuries. It’s better to be safe
than sorry, so change your tires
immediately when you notice
these signs. Covers and Enclosures
Rear Seat Kits
Many golf carts are not fam-
ily-friendly or group-friendly
since there’s no room for a lot
of people in one cart. If you’re
the type who loves to venture
out with a group of people, then
a rear seat kit would be the per-
fect upgrade for your golf cart.
Simply put, a rear seat kit is an
extension to make more room
(for people or cargo) in a golf
cart. Whether you’re riding
alone or with a group, a rear
seat can be handy for bringing
extra gear or allowing more
people to ride.
If you’re planning to tackle hard-
er terrains this year, why not
get bigger and taller tires and
wheels? Larger tires and wheels
allow better traction and stabili-
ty when running through rough,
bumpy, and difficult paths.
Fender Flares
Tires and Wheels With bigger tires and wheels
come muddier journeys. While
large tires are ideal for navigat-
ing through tough terrains, they
are so good at gently coursing
through messy paths. Expect to
see lots of mud stains and water
splashes, as well as stray debris,
on your golf cart after driving
through a wet, mucky path.
Tires and wheels are some of
the most important parts of
a golf cart. The overall perfor-
mance of a golf cart is tied to
the condition of its tires and
wheels. That said, they must be
properly cared for to perform
their function and last longer. If
your golf cart tires and wheels
have served you for a long time,
then you’ve probably noticed If you don’t want to deal with
the mess every time you ride in
muddy terrain, you may want
to install fender flares on your
golf cart. Like those in SUVs and
trucks, golf cart fender flares
serve as shields over your tires
to prevent dirt, mud, and debris
from splashing in all directions.
With these protectors, all you
need to worry about is cleaning
The weather can take an un-
expected turn when you’re out
riding around, and the closest
shelter may be miles away from
where you are. This is when
having enclosures on your golf
cart can be extremely conve-
nient. You can simply take cover
in there and drive to the nearest
covered space or wait for the
drizzling to stop.
If it’s especially hot outside, an
enclosure can protect you from
the sun. There are temporary
enclosures that you can easily
install when the weather gets
worse and take when it gets
better.
Proper Care and Maintenance
Replacing and upgrading the
accessories and parts of your
golf cart is inevitable.
Time, constant use, and ex-
posure to different elements
will sooner or later wear down
these components. However, if
you want to maximize the per-
formance and longevity of your
golf cart and its accessories and
parts and batteries, proper care
and maintenance should be
done regularly. Only then can
you ensure that your golf cart
can accompany you through
more years of carting fun.
