    Does anybody know for sure or have a guess as to what kind of wheels are on the Ala Kart? Or some good picture of the wheels and tires on the car? I have a pretty good guess as to what they are but need to know for sure

    So what was done to the Ford Centers? There is no Vents in the wheels. Also in the pictures I've seen the valve stem sticks straight out on the rear wheels

    Something along those lines. But I'm thinking that they might be 15" ones cut down and put into 14" rims
