Re: Wheels?

Hi. I'm a totally confused rural rookie. My question similar to this one. I actually did read section 8 several times and everything else my glossed over eyelids could handle on the subject. Its just that one rule says EXACT KOP replacements are required. And other rules infer that its ok to use other COTS parts on the robot.

"If we use a different wheel from the KOP that doesn't fit inside the wheel housing? Can we use a different wheel housing? Or could I maybe modify the KOP housings to fit over the wheels because I'd like a different sized tire?"

I've seriously looked everywhere... and from what I gather, I can use a different wheel housing as long as its basically safe.
