Higher coefficient of friction is generally better. It means your more likely to be torque limited instead of traction limited. Though a difference of .1 probably won't make a difference.

Our team went with the 6" plaction wheels. I really wanted to use the 4" plactions, but it was going to get a little tricky with the KOP frame and wanting to keep it as simple as possible. The more time we spent on our drivebase is the less time we have driving it!

We are using rough-top in the middle of our dropped-center 6wd for maximum grip.

We're going with a 6WD 6" dropped pneumatic in the center and with omnis on the corners.
