Shooter wheels

Right now the arm that I designed is using the 2012 KOP wheels; the 6 in HiGrip FIRST Wheel (am-0940), to suck in and shoot the balls. Is this legal? Are all wheels legal to use on any part of the robot? And is anyone else using these? we are getting amazing distances, (50ft) and we are compressing the ball about 3 inches.

Thanks in advance!
