Tire Care: Tomberlin vehicles have a firm sports-car-like ride that tracks well with an emphasis on lateral stability. We engineer
a “feel -the- road” sensation via rack and pinion steering; and provides a tighter road-hugging ride compared to a traditional
golf car. Proper tire care is critical to aid in enhancing a safe and improved ride. Proper storage habits, properly inflated tires,
and keeping the vehicle correctly aligned will offer a much longer tire life as well as improved ride.
Flat Spots: Flat spotting or wheel bounce can occur in virtually any tire. However, golf car tires and wheels are more
susceptible (due to size and width) — especially in warm climate areas and when parked for several days. Visit the Tirerack
website links below to learn more about proper tire care, storage tips, and ways to reduce flat spotting which can produce
a bouncy ride. Go to the following sites (or similar sites) for more information.

Tire Cradles: Tomberlin recommends removing the weight of the vehicle from the tires when in storage (or not used) for
more than a week. Tire cradles may offer a simpler method to aid in the reduction of tires getting out of round. Visit

sites to learn more. Tomberlin provides these tips as an aid to our consumer’s own research and knowledge. Tomberlin has no
