I have extruded a wheel that originally looked like this:

My modified wheel now looks like this:

As you can see, the shading looks incorrect, with strange dips instead of a flat surface. But the normals seem ok to me:

Is there a way I can fix this? Is there some sort of issue with my vertices causing problems with interpolation?

Thank you!

You need to remove these vertices. They are creating n-gons. You should strive towards quad based topology (4 sides).
