A better wheel choice might be to use freestyle skateboard wheels.  They
are much smaller in diameter (hence less torque needed to turn), with
greater contact surface area, and the same degree of hardness.  I would
then load the car to the specified weight, with the weight centered over
the drive wheels.  Good luck with your car!  I wish we had a contest like
that in high school!
