Hey guys. Since I have access to a Milling machine and Lathes and I have some Knowledge about them I was planning that I could do my own rims and hubs and just buy the tires. Since Im in México and theres just a few people that race go karts here, would someone be VERY (extremely) gently and could measure their rims? probably the rear hubs too? So I can make some?

I know that they are 6061 aluminum with T6 chemical threatment ( in which cold working doesnt affect its mechanical properties) however I dont have any type of measurement =(

I kno its too much too ask but maybe some one has aldready did it or has a link to a page which has them, Anyway thanks a lot

Front hubs with bearings are about $15.00 ea. and rear hubs are around $11.00

I couldn't make them for that in my shop. Any Kart shop should have them. But if you want to make them just to make them, I will get you some measurements.

We have a machine dedicated to hubs. You WILL NOT make them for less. I guess if you just want to make a set for yourself its ok, but unless your going to run the hell out of them its just cheaper to buy. I think we sell them for under 10 bucks each.
