Wheels for robot

Hi I recently purchased motors for a robot I am building. I am a beginner and looking for wheels to go along with the motors. I am following along a project in the Robot Builder book by John Baichtal. It recommends laser cutting the wheels but I don’t have a laser cutter readily available, so I’m looking for suitable wheels that will fit on the shaft of the motor. See the following webpage for a picture

There is a shaft connector which can be screwed onto the wheel if there are holes. Does anyone have any suggestions for what wheels to get that will fit onto the motor shaft?

Hi @volcan25 and welcome to the RobotShop community!

If you already own the kit you mentioned you could simply add some tires to the transmission wheels, like this ones:

Or if you want a sturdier set you could check out these ones:

You can also find other wheels in this section, you would simply have to look if they are compatible with the hub

Maybe this guide can help you out with that

I hope that information can help you out :grinning:
