Grab yourself a GMPW - GM Series Plastic Wheel (Black), and get building that championship-winning robot! This wheel was custom made for Solarbotics by the people who make the standard servo wheels used on many Mini-sumo wrestling robots. They're made from beautifully injection-molded ABS plastic designed to fit the double-flat output shaft of the GM series gear motors. Gone are the rubber bands, replaced by molded-on thermoplastic silicon tires with superior traction & wear characteristics.
Take a Solarbotics GM2 - Gear Motor 2 Offset Shaft , GM3 - Gear Motor 3 - 90 degree Shaft , GM8 - Gear Motor 8 - Offset Shaft or GM9 - Gear Motor 9 - 90 Degree Shaft (RB-Sbo-01/02/06/07), add a spanky LARGE diameter wheel, and you've got a powerhouse combination that can take on any servo for less investment. The Solarbotics GMPW - GM Series Plastic Wheels are compatible with the Solarbotics Wheel Watcher Rotation Encoder. Use it if you need to control a robot for dead reckoning, tracking odometry (distance traveled), stalled motor, or closing the feedback loop for position/velocity/acceleration.
I bought this product and I am satisfied with its efficiency!

good wheel for clean surfaces
These wheels work well. Very good traction and lightweight but durable. The tires will grab whatever is on the surface they run on however so use on clean surfaces or your wheels will pick up debris.

Good, but tires come off
The wheel works well with solarobotics plastic gearmotors like the GM9, but the tires sometimes come off from the wheel. However, this is not a huge issue.

Yep, it’s a wheel
What can I say? Solid enough, fit nice and snugly to the motor that it was paired with, grips the surface nicely.
