Never thought of a go-cart, I'll look into that. Yeah I like the wheels I'm using too and they were really easy to modify but I'm not sure just how strong they are, OK they can withstand the weight of a laden pushchair with shopping and baby but how will they fare on a buggy that weighs maybe 10kg once built at 50mph? The tires aren't much to talk about either, just a kind of rubberised foam. They'll have almost zero traction in wet grass and the tires wouldn't last long on tarmac. I don't know, maybe if I could find a way to put pneumatic tires on the rims then they'd fare better I think.
Lawnmower wheels might work so long as they came off of a decent make, they'd have to be fitted with solid tires at least. I've really narrowed my choice in the wheel department because I've changed the drive shaft size.
How big are Baja wheels? I think they'd be too small though but it's the biggest purpose made wheel I can think of lol.
