I need to either replace my office chair or replace it's wheels - they're killing my wood floors when the chair moves off the mat.
Amazon is now an abyss of sponsored listings and fake reviews and algorithms - so I'm unable to get good feedback on a solution.
I've heard that the skateboard style replacements are good - but too rolly, leading to unwanted movement.
Any suggestions on replacements that have worked for you?

I bought the roller blade wheels and can confirm they were very rolly. I couldn't stay in a comfortable position. Maybe there's a pad you could buy to reduce the rolliness.

I ended up going with these. It sucks not being able to roll, but at least I can keep my chair in a comfortable spot, and I'm not scratching the floor up.

@yarn interesting idea. Are they a little slidey? Or not really?
