We are running 2 RS-550s (slightly more powerful than -9015) for our shooter, each drives 2 8" wheels and we haven't had any heat issues. We run them through 5:1 reduction BB P60 gearboxes and direct drive to the wheels. I would look at your shooter a little more closely if you're having issues with your motor heating up.
