Re: wheels
If they are on the kid kart, they are the right wheels to learn. When she gets the hang of it, narrow up the rear wheels (up to 3.25") to get more roll out and top speed. If you go with the skinny ones right off the bat and she can't handle the kart because it is too loose, you may be taking a step back. If you only have the skinnier rears, work on the total rear width by moving the hubs in or out on the axle to adjust for loose or tight conditions.
