Choosing Go-kart Tire Tread

Maintenance of Tire

Maintaining the proper tire pressure is the most crucial aspect of tire maintenance. Every time you go outside, make sure all tires are inflated properly (within the manufacturer's recommended range). Tires that are under or over-inflated won't last as long, since they will not wear as well. Inadequately inflated tires might also affect stability because they will not be in the right form.

See how your kart's tires are wearing. Go-kart tires should be replaced when they are too worn out. As your ride will start to feel less smooth, especially through turns, you'll typically be able to tell when to change them. Along with severe drifting or sliding in the bends, you might also notice that the track has less traction.

Go-kart tires are also produced with tiny holes that can be used to detect when they are excessively worn. It's a good sign that it's time for new go-kart tires if you inspect these holes and discover that they are not particularly deep. If your tires are equipped with this indicator, make it a habit to check it as part of your preparation process because it will let you know when it's time for some new tires.
