A wheel system adapted for use with a guided soft target (GST) is disclosed. The GST includes a soft body that is removably attachable to a dynamic motion element (DME). The wheel system has an axle connected to the soft body and to a tire body rotatably connected to the axle. The tire body has an outer surface concentric with the axle and encircling the axle with a ground-contacting tire ridge extending from and encircling the outer surface. The ridge is constructed to contact the ground when the soft body is attached to a DME. The ridge is comprised of a ridge material and has a ridge width, both of which are selected to (1) permit the tire body to slide in a direction parallel to the axle when the tire body is subjected to a lateral force; and to (2) rotate the tire body as the DME moves.
