This seems to be a pretty good website as far as parts... I was looking through there gear/sprocket selection (I think I linked it properly, not sure if it is the right page sorry) and I only saw 3/4in and 5/8in "jack shaft" sprockets (which I assume are the ones that go on the motor) and the "jack shaft" on the golden motor BLDC motor is 20mm ~13/16in... (3/4in ~19mm) I assume I cannot buy those because 1mm is rather significant correct?
I will most likely use that website for the bigger sprocket and sprocket hub that will go on the axel (just have to wait to get the actual kart so I know what size axel it is)...
I played around with the gear ratio and speed calculator. I know it isn't accurate because it doesn't factor the unique weight or drag of your kart, but it was a good ballpark... Will play with it more when I have a better idea of what gears I will get.
I started looking into tires and stuff, was looking at the "Turf" tires... Just wondering what size I should get..

Here is a link to the page, is there another type of tire I should consider? I just want a pretty inexpensive tire that is going to be relatively easy to mount to some rims and will get pretty decent grip on road. (I may do some off-road stuff in my back yard but I think for the most part I'll stick to asphault) My preference would be to get a set of 4 tires mounted on rims for under $50 but I guess that's not really reasonable so maybe $75...
I went for the turf style because I figured if I went for the slicks they might get more grip on road and I sort of want to drift/peel out if possible. Also, the slicks looked more expensive. Y'all know way more than me about this so please give your input if my thinking is wrong!!!!!!!
