1300: Legal Wheels?
Answered by committee
No. As described in rule <R6>, all wheels must either be official VEX V5 components or be built using only official VEX V5 components or other legal materials (e.g., certain types of non-shattering plastic as allowed by rule <R9>). Wheels from other product lines, including flex / compliant wheels, are prohibited.
