I'm not quite sure why you'd say that. Hundreds of teams used IFI wheels last year, and only a handful experienced problems. Even though the problems were few and far between, this off-season IFI looked at the problems and designed a new version of their wheels. The new version addressed all the complaints and issues brought up during the 2006 season. They even took the time to have these wheels beta-tested by an FRC team. Their new wheels are tested and proven. There were no "explosions" in these tests.
