Buy MXCs instead. You will go quicker, and your tyres will stay 'on' for much longer.

If you can't afford MXCs Douglas Low Volume 130/210 are <£150 are the next best thing and much better than the mustard MXP pieces of **** .

You'l need, a scotch pad to key your origanal paint before painting, then some panel wipe (degreaser). And depending on the quality your after depends on what you paint them with. I refurb car wheels for a living and id charge you about a tenner a wheel for kart wheels.. thats another route if you no any bodyshops ect. Let me no if you have any problems. On the subject do you guys think refurbing kart wheels at the tracks would be a good idea? Never seen anyone else doing it and the kits on my van obviously and can paint any colour you can imagine.

£10 a wheel sounds reasonable maybe if you go to a big event where lots of racers etc go someone goto have it done i would have thought

I get my wheels sandblasted and then powdercoated! The paint on them are strong and you get a good all round colour! only worry is damaging them again removing and reapplying tyres! just use a lot of soap and they'll slip on and off!

Heres one of the sets I had done recently (about 4 months ago now)



Ignore the missing bolts etc on the wheels, it was just placed on the kart for the picture.
