Jibri, what Ether is saying is that when you have weight centered on the robot and you add two dropped wheels, the weight is more distributed over the center wheels than the outer wheels, causing a higher normal force on the center wheels than either the front or back set of wheels. Your point about the centripetal force is still valid though.
