Any Ideas?

Hello all!

Ok, a couple years back, we had our sponsors test and formulate a special rubber for our wheels. As you can imagine, that was fairly expensive.
Because of the shape of our drive train, these wheels no longer work well, they are too soft and grip too well, we just bounce around when we try to turn. What we need is a harder rubber that grips less. Just to see if it would help, we put electrical tape on the wheels and our robot was able to turn correctly, but thats not legal. does anyone have any ideas short of getting new wheels or know of any commercial products that could harden the rubber?
