The only reason rubbers should be used in stock is so the bot is closer to the ground, which will give it a better wedge. Either that, or on rammers, so the wheels are smaller and have a smaller chance of getting knocked off.

Not like shinies look good in the first place >_> It took a year for them to grow on me (I've played since 2008).

HOW DARE YOU INSULT TEH SHINIES

Only wheels that look better IMO are N 12s.

not bad I guess but your wasting so much weight when blue Snappers have 2 attachment points

that could halve your chassis size

Better... now make the wedges longer so they poke out the front.  They're not doing any good hidden inside like that.

Put a wedge on it and use razors. Also shrink the chassis.

That should make it a lot better. :D
