7" diameter rims

[Cooper1972]

I am looking for some 7" diameter rims to fit a small go kart. The tires that I am looking at are 16-8.00 7. I have not been able to find any rims that will fit this cart on any online websites. If anyone can point me i a direction to purchase some rims that would work with these tires I would greatly appreciate the help.

The cart has 6" rims on it already. The rims are 4 bolt with a 3.5" bolt circle. I'm not sure about the diameter of the hole for the hub.

Thanks

That should work. It has the rim keyed so you put it on the shaft without a hub. I couldn't find any 7" rims that would bolt onto a hub on bmi, although you could go with 8" if you haven't bought the tires already.

Thanks. I think I will be able to make one of those rims work. That is a good website, I was able to find a few other things that I needed for my project.

Thanks Again!

I got my rims and tires for my kart. I ordered 7" rims with a 1" keyed hub. I cut the keyed hub out and drilled holes to bolt up to my hubs. The rims worked out well. Thanks again for the information. I attached a picture of the starting rim and the finished product.

They look like they'll do the job well.
