For our viewers at home: The tread material we're using wears down during continual usage. We will need to swap out and replace old treads probably once a regional. Or... because of our design, we may just "rotate the tires". Can any of you budding young designers figure out why? ![]() -JV Last edited by JVN : 02-02-2005 at 16:41. |

the one on the right looks much more professional. the one on the left just looks drilled for lightening. i would say the one on the right, although i'm not a big fan of gold.

Re: pic: 229 "Bling" for 2005
So these are the wheels alekat wus talking bout... lol.... NICE! i like the one on the left more industrial looking... this year we had our first custom wheels
we were going to mill ours out of a rod but due to cost issues.... we made 2 piece rims... we milled the outer rims frome pipe and had the center spokes waterjetted pretty sweet although we can't beat the level of blingosity established by yours |

I would almost say that the outer 4 wheels will require more frequent tread replacement as the center two are less likely to slip. I assume the tread wears more rapidly with slipping side forces.
I actually like the one on the left, they remind me of 258's wheels. |

Hey John!
Where are the SpreeWheels? You gotta get the spinners if you really wanna flash some Bling Bling out there! Nice job by the way... I may have to leave a couple of cinder blocks under your bot in exchange for those after the competitions. Ellery |
