    I am trying to model a custom 3 spoke wheel for my apex xcr and I encountered this strange issue, it likes to deform when its going in a decent speed and higher.

    stand still...

    80+ mph

    It is really bugging me and I"m wondering if its normal. I posted this issue everywhere and there's no response.
    If this isn't normal, how can I fix this?

    what is the actual speed you are going at there?


    --EDIT--

    I'm blind.

    I never saw it happen that quick.
    What jbeam did you take of which wheel?

    The flexbody is on the hub and not the tire, also the hub nodes is perfectly on the wheel so that' not an issue. I also tried raising the springs but its already high enough that it doesn't explode.

    I guess I didn't need to tweak the nodes weights or beam strengths. Someone on discord told me to ungroup the center nodes from the mesh. At first I didn't know what he meant but I now figured it out. I am still learning even after a year of modding. :p

    BTW, the nodes are already rediculously heavy. 10 kg each.
