I emailed Aren of Vexpro about the 8" and if it wasn't updated, if it was still reliable.

This is what he said:


"The 8" Mecanum wheels experience significantly less roller deflection when rotating, we have not applied this update to our current inventory.
In terms of reliability the 6" wheel is your best bet.
