We found the plastic shattered/melted if you used lock tight on the bolts. Did anyone else notice this litle problem?

: We haven't had any problems - four wheel drive - 110lbs
: but I know a lot of people have - just in case we will
: have a spare set machined out of aluminum as a back up.

: IMHO the [alstic used by small parts is too brittle - but not using the proper spacing, to large wheels, over tightening all may cause these failures - the cracks I saw on one teams robot were all near the bolt holes.
