Yes the front wheels are two of the stock (Mercedes) rear ones, mounted all around with Bridgestone Potenza tires 195/50-15. They are fully legal in that they do not protrude from the fenders (don't need fender skirts).
I had the car wide open on a Florida freeway and it is TOTALLY solid with these wheels. Also, the tires have a very friendly reverse tread that doesn't rip up grass. An expert at the golf show said the car had a compression rating of 8-9lbs/sq ft, where 12 is acceptable and the human foot is 6.
So you can drive this car, with its spin and skid control brains, anywhere on a golf course that regular carts can go, and do less damage. And you can park it by your condo there for the wife's use between rounds.
The rack is the only one in the world too, you could proabably sell a nice quantity of those over time.. The price includes the domain and brand name smart-cart.org, FWIW. :-)
