We have decided that more wheels does actually equal enough of an advantage that we are planning to stack our wheels three wide. Question- in order to ensure that each wheel is continually in contact with the regolith, we are considering turning them on the lathe together and using a levelling stick to sand them even with each other, then buffing them to a surface texture equal to that with which they came in the KOP.

The question is, is this legal? While we appreciate your concern about coefficient of friction and all that, please don't worry about giving us advice on the number of wheels. We simply want to know if we can resurface them without attempting to add traction to the surface of the wheel.

Thanks!
