What size wheel would this equate to? Maybe 4" or 4.5" mechanum?

The goal was definitely to have minimal impact on machining resources (gotta save all that complex stuff for the manipulator!), and keep cost down.
The effective diameter is about 4.375. It is a little rough ride, as the design goes, so I'll be doing some incremental changes to address the problem.
