| Does heeling on hardwood floors make marks or ruin the wood? |

Do you see material being lost from the wheel? Then it's not gonna rub off on the wood. Urethane wheels are generally too soft to make any kind of indentation, either.
On the other hand, using your heel brake too hard can make a nice, long rubber streak... |

| The (hardwood) floor in my room was kinda crappy to begin with, but I noticed that the wheels left a couple little dents. also sometimes I see skid marks at work where I had heeled not long ago and wonder whether I left them. |

When I said "non-marking" I meant, "non-permanent marking".
Any of the marks (on tile or hardwood) comes right out with a cloth and some water.
The only time I've scratched anything is when a tiny pebble got stuck in the heel brake. The could happen, but its rare.
