Contingencies are always a good thing, but remember 'jack of all trades, master of none'. You often are making sacrifices to be able to account for large varieties of wheels, etc. While this time of year is absolutely the best time of year to explore those options, when its time to start spending money and cutting metal on a build-season robot, the best bang for your buck may be a very focused design.
