Re: Wheel Repair?

Filling voids in the wheels with epoxy sounds VERY suspicious to me. This would be a violation of the "Rover Wheels must be unmodified" rule.

You might be able to get this past an inspector if it looks seamless but I could easily imagine an increase in the coefficient of friction by using an appropriate epoxy. This would really go against the principles of GP.

I would strongly encourage teams to simply replace such Rover Wheels if they can't be restored via polishing. If the wheels are losing chunks of material during normal driving, you need to limit your driving to smooth surfaces that don't result in such deformation.
