Modern wheels
#4
Brad,

The thing about the Tri Stars is that they are period correct for rear engine karts, and they are reasonably priced.  Again, I like the 4"/5" combination as it looks more retro to me.

You can always upgrade your wheels later, and Tri Stars always sell well on Ebay.

After you've got some time under your belt in this vintage karting arena and have attended some events, you'll be able to figure out if you really do want something else.  I have discovered that many of the things I chose early in my vintage karting activity I no longer want, so this is really kind of normal.

Reproduction Go Power wheels are available as are CT Alloy wheels.  And again, the Margay series 24 wheels are good looking and popular, and readily available.

You will spend around $75 to $100 per wheel for these upgrade wheels.

So, it's a safe bet to go with the Tri Stars to start with, and then figure out if and what you may really want later - including just sticking with the Tri Stars.

Best regards,

Jim Waltz
