The present disclosure relates to a wheel apparatus 100 that includes a rim module 105 coupleable to an axle and a solid tire module 110 that extends from the rim module 105. The solid tire module 110 includes a plurality of tread teeth 112 that form a peripheral edge 111. The peripheral edge 111 forms at least a portion of a tire profile. Each tread tooth of the plurality of tread teeth has a spatial specification that includes a circumferential width 13, a radial height 14, an edge shape, and a circumferential gap width 17. The spatial specifications of the plurality of tread teeth 112 are non-uniform. In one embodiment, the solid tire module 110 has a non-circular rotational trace. In another embodiment, at least a circumferential region of the peripheral edge 111 comprises a sequence of tread teeth having sequentially increasing radial height 14.
