do i spy that these wheels are inflatable? why'd you pick inflatable wheels, were they the only type that would fit over the rim?

Inflatable wheels allow you to adjust traction by changing the pressure, they can be rather useful if used correctly. Team 330 has been using them for a few years now with much success.

it is hard to make wheels to take the tube that we are using. Yes you get a lot of traction from using this type of wheel. Plus you cut down on vibrations to the robot

This is a possibility that I never enven considered. I do like that it not only is functional but also makes themstand out from the thousands of other teams out there.
