changing off road to street tires?

[hotboy]

hello, my son has a regular go kart with 5hp engine, dont know the brand of the kart but really old

but anyway, i would like to change the front and back off road tires he has now to on road street tires like the race go kart.

what i need to know is what all do i have to do and buy to change them? if anybody can tell me what all i need and where i can buy them?
thanks alot, real reason why i want to change becasue he can only ride his kart on asphalt and the off road tires get burn out so fast, so hoping with the street tires will at least a little longer
thanks

Get slicks for maximum performance...

Usually go kart tires are split rims. Extremely easy to switch out tubes/tires.

where can i buy them? so those slick can go on these go karts?

do you know a site where i can buy them?

Well, sort of, depends on how your axle is set up, you may or may not need hubs. Take pics of what you got, with and without wheels if possible.

we need 1 thing answered, what is your current tire/wheel size?
just give us all the info you can find printed on the tire's sidewall

then we can send you to a store that sells the size you require
