I am new to the karting world & have been working on my 5 year old's jr flat kart. She is winning races and doing good but I have questions about the logic of where to position the tires (yes i know, one on each corner). I changed tires around which changed the width and it got me wondering if they tires are usually spaced to be even with the edge of the body or if there is a different logic that may require the front to be wider than the back, back wider than the front, have a certain tire stick out or in farther than the others.... Can some of you share your reasoning on how to set up the width?
BTW, when I changed things around I put the very wide right front on the left rear so both rear tires are the same width & I put the left rear tire on the right front. This tire was much narrower and slightly taller.
Glad I found this site, been reading lots of good advice
