There is some info on the site for alternate sources for the Caliba
wheels, but I'm sure there are other manufacturers out there as well.
If you have any in your vicinity, check your local karting shops to
see what they have.
A company named Grant makes custom and replacement wheels for
automobiles, and they also makes a Momo-type 10" wheel, but I've never
seen places like Pep Boys carry the small Grant wheels. TSW used the
Grant wheel for a while as a low-cost alternative to a true Momo, but
I think they discontinued it for some reason (supply problems,
perhaps?).
As for using a go-kart wheel, most karting wheels come pre-drilled
with a three-hole pattern, and I wanted to retain the Caliba wheel's
three-hole mounting scheme without having to drill two more holes to
match up with my TSW wheel's mounting points, so I fabricated an
adapter out of aluminum stock, but you wouldn't have to get that
elaborate if you weren't a fanatic like me.
;-)
Hope this helps!
