Caster Wheels vs. Spikes

My Tekton Double Impacts came with caster wheels, which made them very easy to move and reposition. They are sitting on probably fake wood floors in my apartment. They sound great now, but I can't help but wonder if I'm leaving SQ on the table by not having them on spikes. Some people say I must use spikes, others (including Erik Alexander) say wheels are just fine. They are super heavy so the wheels are not easy to take off. I want to make sure it's worth doing. What are your experiences and thoughts?

Swiveled plastic wheels are working great for me on hardwood. So easy to position depending on where I’m at in the room. I lock the wheels with than pointed out at the corners, give the speaker a little shake to hear the wheels lock and it feels pretty solid if trying to move the speaker.
Great way to experiment with the sound/position!  And fairly cheap. 20 some bucks for a set of 4
