Encoders and Rover Wheels

In this case, would it be legal to use two omniwheels? Would this be considered using items other than the rover wheels for traction, even if they are designed not to mechanically affect the slippage or traction of the robot?

Check the Q&A for this, there is a large amount of posts on that, but in general they say it is ok but provide more specifics than just that

Thank you for all of your input and suggestions. I will approach our legal dept. tommorow to see exactly what wheela we can use but will probably end up listening to mechanical. Thanks!
