The simple answer is to inflate your pneumatic tires with the KOP compressor.

From Team Update #3:

J. For the purposes of the FIRST competition, air-filled (pneumatic) wheels are not considered pneumatic devices, and are not subject to the pneumatic rules (although they must still satisfy all other appropriate rules).

thank you for all your responses, but our team has found some nice non-pneumatic wheels that suit our purposes just fine.

Again I would like to thank you all for your clarification though!
