Wheels..

Hi all,

I was hoping to have a discussion about.. well.. wheels.

Barring Mecanums and other specialty wheels, it seems like most wheels come down to just varying weights and tread patterns.

I'm eager to find out - why one wheel over another? What makes or breaks a wheel for your team?

Versawheels, AndyMark performance wheels, kitbot Grip wheels, Colsons - why one or the other? A lot have similar CoF's. Which tread? Why?

I guess it's because we're looking into a WCD this year and I'm trying to figure out what wheels to use and why - when choosing wheels we've never really thought deep into it because we've never seen much depth to it - "well these are grippy, so they'll do" - is how we've been.

Of course, different situations call for different wheels, but in general I'd like to hear some feedback and guidance.
