You can count me as one of those people - I had no idea I could get rubber wheels for my Aeron chair! But here’s the thing; it’s too risky to switch out the wheels and HOPE that it works. Because if it doesn’t, and the floor chips, I have no more spare boards to replace them…not would I want to re-do all the work I’ve just done. So that’s why the added flooring is a must-do.

But just for added fun I've ordered some of the rubber wheels - thanks for the suggestion! I'm hoping it will make rolling over the garage floor tiling easier - there are some slightly raised bumps that make rolling a bit less effortless than I was hoping for.
