I'm purchasing 5” diameter x 3-1/2” wide wheels and some 10x4.5-5 inch slicks that the site says will fit on them. I'm building a drift trike and am new to all things "go-karting" so I'm very confused by a few things.
Firsty, Will a tire that is 4.5 wide actually fit onto a 3-1/2" wide rim??
secondly, where can I find inner tubes for this tire? I can't seem to find anything that is 10x4.5-5 only things that come up are 4.1/3.5-4 and I don't even know what that means haha
I have to have 10/10.5" diameter wheels so I can put 10" pvc sleeves on them. unless I can find wheels that are 6" for a live axle but I cant seem to find slicks like that.
here are links to the two I'm interested in.
