Re: Best Wheels For Drop-Center Drivetrain.
4901 used 4" HiGrips this year--replaced the centers Thursday at Palmetto (drove it a bit in the parking lot to practice), and we'll replace the centers again at Championship after wearing them bald again after playing hard D in the Orlando finals. (We had 26 matches on them across Palmetto and Orlando.)
We entertained switching to Colsons in St. Louis, but with other upgrades and the limited amount of practice time for them, we decided the time spent fiddling with spacers and other bits wasn't worth it. Maybe next year.
