You may be comparing apples to oranges.

It might be that pneumatic wheels are needed for that much compression though.
With a low-pressure pneumatic tire, you don't get an accurate measurement of the compression of the frisbee by simply measuring the gap between the tire and the fence, especially if the frisbee is passing slightly underneath the tire (as it does in many pneumatic-tire designs)
