And if you for some reason do get in trouble for the wheels during competition then it is the judges fault for letting you do it.

I'm sorry, but this mindset is not a good one. It's NOT the judges' fault!

#1: Read the intent of <R06>, stated in the rule. What part of "out of the box" do you not understand? Also see Update #5.

#2: The judges do not determine compliance with the rules. The inspectors and refs do. The inspectors would keep you off the field.

#3: It isn't the inspectors and refs' fault if you do something illegal and they catch you, it's yours.
