RC 1/10 Scale Airless Wheels

Description
Hey everyone,
here is my version of 1/10 scale rc airless wheels. My Version does not require Rims and is compatable with 12mm Hex Wheel-Hubs.
I was supprised at how much grip they offer! Of course they are not quite as good as regular rc compunds but they worked especially well on very slick surfaces such as oiled wood flooring, gym floors and on fairly rough and bumpy asphalt! The design also dampens a lot of vibrations that, depending on the shocks you might use, dont get discipated al that well!
I printed them in 95a TPU but softer materials should provide even more grip! When using very soft materials such as 60-70a TPU you might have problems with the bracing beeing to soft but i havent had the chance to test this yet! If anyone does try printing with filaments like this please let me know how well it works!
I tried to keep the material as well as the Print time minimal since i have had fairly little abbrasion on other TPU tires i tried in the past! So far i have about 10 5000mAh LiPos of testing on my set of these and have had no visible or measurable wear other than the tread surface getting scratched up!
Filament per Wheel ~18g
Print time per wheel ~ 1h40min
Filament per set ~70g
Print time per set ~ 5h 30min
Please let me know how these do for you and feel free to leave suggestions for future versions!
I have uploaded a V2 that will probably suit more general needs and is better in most ways and on most surfaces (this Version/ V1 is the go to for smooth or rubbery surfaces, V2 has an additional tread pattern and rounded edges). If V2 sounds better feel free to check it out!
