This is what my team used for our drive train. We though it worked really well for breaching and we didn't have to check the tires that much either. Boulders were a problem for my team when we ran over them but I'm not blaming that on the drive train we chose. We also modified it to were it was tank drive which is what our robot last year used so we had more experience driving it like that.
