Weird wheel problem with Car

so, im creating a game that mostly involves driving.

and this might seem dumb,
i have this car that i built (not scripted) and there’s one major problem to it.
whenever i drive it forwards, there’s one tire that basically affects the entire way the vehicle moves.

it sometimes hovers above the ground, gets jammed and doesn’t spin at all, or sometimes even veer the entire thing to the wheel’s direction.
it’s kind of annoyed me, i’ve been trying to solve it for an entire week.

this is the vehicle that i’m talking about, and the wheel that i was talking about is the one on the front.


it’s most likely a weight problem to me, but i’ve tried many weight-related solutions and none of them worked.

i tried looking in the code, i searched the constraints like a determined father finding his son in a crowded train station. no luck.

can someone please tell me whats going on? or am i just overanalysing?

what vehicle system is this? is it the ancient freemodel red car one?

yeah it is, the ones from nwspacek

are the wheels a mesh? only cylinder base parts are mathematically perfectly cylindrical. vehicles on Roblox usually have fully transparent basepart balls for collisions because they have less issues than cylinders

well thank lord you’re here, they were indeed meshes. now what do i do in order for the problem to be fixed? sorry if this seems rude.

From the view, it looks like the wheel mesh is colliding with the mesh of the vehicle’s frame. If you just space it out more, the shaking should go away

already tried that multiple times, it either got worse or makes the entire thing unable to move forward. + the other wheel on the other side of the vehicle is a-ok.

please, for your own sanity, switch to A-chassis

am i doing something wrong here??

just replace the wheels with basepart cylinders or make them not collidable and weld transparent basepart cylinders/balls to it

body of the car needs to be anchored, and in “Body”
