What kind are they?

[jstrawse]

Does anyone Know where these type 5 spoke wheels came from, there 6" two piece alum or Mag. I was told they might be early Rupp go kart

[KiwiMike]

Yes, that's what they are from. A vintage Rupp go kart. Some of the older Rupp minibikes came out with the same wheels.
Here is a link to a vintage Rupp advertisement for a Dart gokart:

Yo mate,is there anything you dont know?????:)

[KiwiMike]

Lol. It sounds like that doesn't it? I have been around karting a long time, built my own karts when I was in my 20s (the MAC90 days), started repairing lawnmowers and small engines when I was 17 out of my parents garage, and I build championship winning go karts for my son.
There is stuff I don't know, I'm kind of weak in the clone and TAV department, but if someone asks a question, I'll ask someone else or research it for them. I'm just here to help.

Ha,no worries mate.:)
