In theory, one could construct giant omniwheels using each Rover Wheel as one of the horizontal rollers...

...The ROVER WHEELS must be used in a “normal” orientation (i.e. with the tread of the wheel in contact with the ground, with the axis of rotation parallel to the ground and penetrating the wheel hub)...

I believe R06 would only apply to the wheels being "used" - that is, the ones touching the ground. The configuration would then be legal, since the wheels not satisfying R06 would not be in use.
Such an omniwheel would have nearly triple the traction of a single Rover Wheel.
