Re: "W" Drive Versa Wheels

We used these wheels in 2013 and 2014, and were generally quite pleased. They have excellent traction, both in the forwards and lateral directions. When new, they almost act like cleats in the carpet.

The one thing to be aware of is that they wear rather quickly. Worn wheels do have both reduced traction and a smaller radius. This isn't a big issue if you have the money to replace them periodically (once per competition at bare minimum, once per day would be even better) and a drivetrain design that allows your wheels to be replaced swiftly. If you have a dead axle drive train that requires significant effort to take apart, I would suggest a lower maintenance wheel (such as Colsons).
