Are you sure you don't have them opposite? I have always heard that roughtop gripped better and had a higher CoF than wedgetop.

Thanks!
That is a good point, it does really depend on the game and tactics a team is aiming for. I am trying to find something good for high speed's, we are using it for a prototype bot and are trying out different wheels and treads
