Yes, you can do that. All you would need to do is bolt a plate to the back of the wheel, and put screws through this and into the plastic hub of the wheel. (This is because most RC Car wheels don't have the same 1/8" Square Shaft hole in them that the Vex kits do.) Our team did this last year on a EDUbot we built.
