Guys,
A few months ago I finished restoring my old Carter Super Wheels kart. I’ve noticed that the inside of the front tires is wearing down a bit so I’m wondering if I don’t have the toe-in set properly. What is the typical setting or is it supposed to be at zero?

Thanks,
Jason

unsuspended karts generally have zero toe in.
(I know no exception, but some might actually use toe in to counteract a wobbly steering because of incorrect geometry)
in fact quite a few karts use a very light toe out
so it's running straight more willingly and with less driver-input
