DWT 5.00x6 Polished Kart Wheel 2.5+2.5 Offset

A kart wheel is the aluminum rim the tire beads onto, same job as a bicycle rim but built for kart racing loads. This DWT 6 inch rim is 5.00 wide with a 2.5+2.5 offset, so the dish is even on both sides of the hub face. Beginners use that even split to keep left and right track width the same when swapping wheels; experienced tuners use it as a known baseline when they change scrub or overall width on a sprint kart or dirt kart, the same way they would with a DWT DW500x5 Kart Wheel 2.5+2.5 Offset OEM #705-14.

The face is stamped 6.00 / 5.00 and carries DWT OEM part 706-04. It is a 3-lug pattern with a polished aluminum finish and a valve stem in a typical tubeless-style location. Use the stem and bead procedure your tire brand specifies. Confirm bolt circle and hub centering against your axle hubs before you mount anything; 3-lug kart hubs are not all the same, and European hubs often need a Precision 17mm Hub Bearing for European Karts and DWT Wheels.

Racers pick a documented offset like this so wheel changes do not quietly move track width. Pair it with a matching 6 inch tire and the same offset on the opposite side unless you are deliberately staggering the chassis. If your hubs use a 3 inch inner bell instead of this dish, look at the DWT 500x6 Polished Kart Wheel with 3.0" Inner Bell for FWB Hubs.
