Need help with tires

Can someone tell me if a 6" x 5-1/4" Rim would fit with a 11x6.00-5 tire?

For the tire, the last digit is the rim diameter (5") and 6.00 is the width.

As for your rim, the answer would seem to be no, it will not fit.

Never heard of a 5 1/4" rim...soooo...you are mis- measuring and it will work.

Ok yes that is a 6" rim is 5 1/4" wide.
Your tire in question is 11" tall 6" wide and fits a 5" rim 11x6.00-5

So simply. NO. sorry

I recommend banning (not permanently) the above two veteran forum members for giving out faulty advice.

Sorry new guy or gal. And..

Maybe OMB would be a better fit for you. They do that. We however keep people around chastise them and make sure they never live down their mistake.

However My answer is NOT faulty! ???

Can you guys help me find a rim that fits this tire?

 

[Hellion]

Let's see photos of your kart or your kart-to-be first!

EDIT: Well.... does it need to have a 1" bore? Just want to make sure...

 

[Seventh_Paradox]

Yes, it does have a 1" live axle

I did not find one. Thing is I don't think you will find one as simple as the 6" with built in Keyed hub. Most 5" wheels are more a racing wheel and require a Hub as well.

 

[Seventh_Paradox]

I don't mind buying separate hubs
