Kart rims are used extensively thru out the classes of Lawn Mower racing. Mainly the front wheels, the kart tires are only allowed in the FX class but again are used extensively.

Well if you are ailiar wit a kart it is the same. Most fabricate the mowers front axle using the more common 5/8 front spindles/axle. Then we use the kart hub and rims. The rear depending on axle size we use Jr dragster hubs with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern and use either mini cup rims or jr dragster rims. All found at either www.arcracing.com or http://www.eccarburetors.com/
