I've seen people take an old stock wheel, cut the center out of it, and then drill and fit wheel studs to make a simple fat tire conversion that retains the rear drum brake. I have no idea on the backspacing. Some people get flat profile tires for 4 wheeled vehicles like modded golf carts and others buy scooter tires and stretch them over the wide wheel. I would assume the stretched scooter tire would feel a little more natural riding because it would still have some curvature.

There is a thread that started a couple of weeks ago about turbos and superchargers. Its either you go all out and spend a few thousand or you just keep on dreaming.
There is no way a stock 50cc 4t engine can stand a turbo kit.

the only things that will fail are the connecting rod will bend due to over compression or the crank bearing will fail due to rpm if I limit my rpms to 7200 and lower my compression ratio and don't exceed about 8lbs of boost other I don't see any issues or is there something im missing

Your will need a 52mm head to match the cylinder if you go 52mm that is....actually I think I ran a 50mm head with my 52mm stroker , and it ran really strong..!! It will bump up the compression a bit

I'm not sure exactly what the compression will push up to. If you stuck with a 50mm head, you could open it up a little and probably tame the compression if needed or more commonly people add an extra base gasket or use a thicker head gasket.
