Wheel Bounce

With almost every wheel/rim set i make, no matter how carefully, the wheels bounce around when i press the arrow keys in order to move. Is there a standard procedure to go through to fix this? Is it a simple fix, or am i completely screwing everything up?
All help is welcomed!
-Thank You!

It is because of collision. Your rims are polygons, rather than circles. On phun, polygons tend to bounce around at high speed. This can be fixed by adding a invisble circle the size of your tyre, that i scollision groub A. The rest of the wheel should have no collisions :) I had this problem when I was starting out on Phun.

Yes, i do that ALL the time, it never works! It just seems to be a hit/miss situation.

you have to put an invisable circle that has not been cut at all behind the rim and then make the rim itself collide with nothing. Then add the center hinge to the circle

i garentee this will solve your problem
