I think another team from our school had this happen. For whatever reason, we were not called on it.

Re: [FTC]: Can I add non-slip material to 4" Tetrix Wheels?
I have asked for a better explanation. The revised rules and the inspection checklist still imply 4" as a maximum. So there is at this point some confusion.

Al,
We asked about this in post #71 on the official forum.

http://ftcforum.usfirst.org/showthre...ull=1#post7778

The answer was "A: Yes, you may modify a legal COTS wheel with a custom tread and make it larger than 4" diameter."
