It's obvious that the Innertube's air nozzle is why the wheel spins off balance.
So we took ours out and filled the tire with pool noodle foam. No more fuss whatsoever. It's probably 100x safer as well.

Except for the part where pool noodle foam doesn't get you the adjustability of changing the air pressure in the tire to adjust how it grips the DISCs.

Also, maybe I'm just not envisioning it correctly, but I dont see how you prevent the tire from pancaking at speed too. I spun up an AM pneumatic 1:1 on a CIM, with no air in the tire, and the tire visibly pancakes a substantial amount.
