How will increased "grip" on the game piece effect it's intake velocity/momentum? How will that impact the rest of your system and control loops? What other mechanisms could be impacted by this change?

Just as a mental exercise, spend some time pondering the impact of changing out the intake wheels on a 2015 118 robot. How does that effect the rest of system?

Things to think about.

Definitely fair. You obviously know a lot more then I do about competitive play as your teams robots are one of the best examples of a consistently competitive bot.

Just wondering would you ever use the blue or even black wheels?

I know I've heard Banebots wheels wear out quick but 1-2 Matches is crazy.
