2008 was the last year that the IFI Kit bot was supplied in the KOP. I believe that in 2005 and 2006 it was supplied with the Copioli Single Speed and Skyway wheels, 2007 switched to Banebot Planetaries and AM wheels, and 2008 used Toughboxes and AM wheels.

2009 was the first year for the C-base and it's gone through 4 iterations since then. IIRC, 2009 was 2 Motor 4WD with Slick wheels, 2010 was 2 motor 4WD with 8" wheels and the lift kit, 2011 was 2 motor 6WD (though only two wheels were powered) with 6" wheels and CIMple boxes and 2012 is 2 motor 6WD with 6" High grip wheels.
