11x7.10-5 PVC Plastic Tire Sleeves for Drift Trikes & Go-Karts (Set of 2)

This set of two hard PVC sleeves fits over 11x7.10-5 slick tires to turn your go-kart or drift trike into a drifter. They limit rear tire traction and give a faster drift effect. Slick tires in this size have been used on go-kart brands such as Sodikarts, Stratos and Remo.

Unlike sleeves that are slick inside and out, these have radial ridges on the inside face that grip the tire rubber. That keeps the sleeve from slipping or spinning off if tire pressure runs low.

Installation: The sleeves are made to fit tightly. Let some air out of the tire, lubricate it with soap suds, then press the sleeve on; a wood or rubber mallet helps. Once it is in position, refill the tire to the correct pressure. Strips of self-adhesive grip tape (like skateboard deck tape) on the sleeve's inner face can help it hold even better.

Note: Drifting puts extra side forces on the wheels, so these sleeves wear faster than a normal tire. The rougher the terrain, the faster the wear. Need only one? See the 11x7.10-5 PVC Plastic Tire Sleeve. We also offer 10x4.50-5 PVC Plastic Tire Sleeves (Set of 2).
