Re: Tread Wear
This past year, 148 used six 4"x2" IFI wheels with the roughtop. From what I understood, the team never had to replace the treads. They survived through 2 regionals, and nationals with no problems. Right before going to IRI we went ahead and replaced the treads to be sure they'd perform their best. Our practice bot finally started blowing treads in the last few driving practices right before IRI. It had been through the build season and summer without needing treads replaced, even though it never saw carpet. Concrete sounds like it would wear more than the carpet at competition, but I could be wrong.
