If you are doing this, simply pick up some transwheels from Kornylak, http://kornylak.com/wheels/transwheel-4000.html. That's what Team 95 used (4202KU's, since they have two rolls of rollers and thus roll smoothly) for their omnidirection test chassis (that we ended up not using for weight reasons).
