p.s. the only thing on update 5 that has to do with wheels is how to repair damaged wheels.

I think I'll let some Championship inspectors deal with this one. You see, teams have competed in 1+ regionals, then gotten to the Championship and found that they were illegal. They made no modifications. Any questions?
And the reason I referenced Update #5 is precisely because it tells how to repair damaged wheels.
With regards to the intent of the rule, it says it in the rule, therefore it is either a) part of the rule or b) an explanatory note. If it is an explanatory note, then you may still want to pay attention. What part of a Supreme Court ruling gets the most attention? It's not the ruling itself, it's the reasons for the ruling.
