Changing to a more reliable wheel like a Colson is great solution if you feel you are swapping wheels too much. We wouldn't have needed to do our one time swap this year if we had designed it for a drop center (oops). If you design in an 1/8in-3/16in drop you will never have to change a wheel.

This design has a 1/8 inch drop center and can be used with Colson wheels so if it does ever get used that would probably be the best configuration. Another use could be to be able to swap modules that have various wheels on them between matches to be able to adapt the drivetrain to your opponents/teammates.
