Or since from the pics it looks like there is a shock in the way, make a saddle pack to go up there, I am sure you could hold it down with some good servo tape.
I wouldn't mind testing some rubber tires that are 3.25" in diameter, but I cant seem to find anyone that makes them. If anyone knows who makes a rubber tire 3.25" in diameter, let me know.
