[[Shiny Hubs]]''' are considered as the best wheels, mainly because of their low weight (12kg) for a decent diameter. You can make a bot invertible with that if you minimize your chassis's height. Perfect if your bot is on a diet (LWs)

The best wheels are [[Shiny Hubs]] because of their low weight and decent diameter. Slipperbottom wheels have a larger diameter and have better grip, and are very useful for when you need guaranteed invertibility. However, they weigh 18kg, 6 more kg than Shiny Hubs. Rubber wheels are also a very smart wheel choice, they give you great traction because of their superb grip, and also give you great ground clearance. Rubber wheels weigh 17kg.

'''Rubber wheels''' are also good: these have the best grip of the three and provide Stock's best ground clearance when on Zteks. Rubber wheels weigh 17kg.
 
   
 
   
Avoid other wheels, there are heavier and are big targets for your opponent. Using [[miniwheels]] is not usually worthy even if they are difficult targets, because they're heavy too.
