Who should i go to , to get custom made wheels

Who should i go to , to get custom made wheels and what material should i make them out of i am thinking aluminium

It would be far easier to buy good quality ready-made wheels from a company such as RC wars (priory castor)

we use nylon to make our own wheels. Easy to work with.

What size wheels are you after and what load will you be putting through them? I agree with Ewan, Priory castors make some heavy duty super gripy wheels that robots like Razer and Behemoth use.

I believe they stock more wheels than displayed though, including the famous (:)) RC Wars wheel

Hi Alistair

Ye the priory castor site is being re made as we speak.
They make there own wheels and any they dont make they can get hold of at far lower prices than any shop or catologue you can think of. from nylon and polyprop to Polyurathene and even pnumatic and for all weight loads to. like dave said, They have the wheels both Razer and behemoth use, also the wheels on mini-maul, cbf, trilibium, Venom and many more were from Priory Castors
