I have a Yuneec E-go and I'm wondering what off-road tires/wheels you think would work.
 
It's going to be a bigger project than just switching the wheels. There are a few options out there, but you'll need to factor a few things also:
Wheel clearance - once you choose a wheel you'll need to test fit it to see if you're going to get wheel bite.

Gear ratio - The E-go was designed for for their specific wheel and wheel diameter. If you change just the wheel your board probably wont have the torque to do much.
You'll need to change the pulley size and belt size. At that point you may also need to change the motor pulley too.

Adapability - There are probably just a few choices for all terrain wheels. XT, Steadfast, MBS, Enertion, Alien, and my wheels.

What belt/pulley profile is on your board?... i caN probably make it work.

So i need to know:
1. What is the current top speed?
2. Count the number of teeth on the motor pulley
3. Count teeth on wheel pulley.
4. Take photo of the wheel & pulley. From top.
5. Measure the diameter of the wheel pulley or the motor pulley. Or both.
6. The diameter of the motor shaft.
7. Battery voltage.
8. Take a photo of the board with drive wheel (wheel with pulley) removed. I need to see exactly where the motor pulley is aligned to in regards to the truck.. maybe put a straight edge from motor pulley to back truck.
