We're trying to get better maneuverability.

Are you suggesting we use different wheels? Any recommendations?

If you implement a 6-wheel skid properly, you shouldn't need more maneuverability. Take a look at 254's drivetrain if you want a WCD; they are very maneuverable without sacrificing the vital side-to-side static friction that allows you to resist pushing. In other words, you should probably go with all traction wheels.
As for the wheels, basically pick any omni wheel that isn't an andymark trick wheel. Personally, I like the plastic ones. They aren't too expensive, they're robust, and I haven't heard of any common failures.
