Plaction Roughtop Tread on carpet

For our robot this year, we are planning on using the Plaction 8" roughtop tread wheels. The tread design will provide good traction on the carpet.

The concerns we have are:
Utilizing tank drive, when turning, will the tread get caught in the carpet?
Will turning put too much stress on the CIM motors?

Thanks so much for your advice!
