Maybe adding some sort of a rubber ring to the raised tread or even covering them completely so they don't roll at all? (btw...removing them is not an option.) You might like "caster cups" You can get them in a variety of colours, sizes and materials including transparent plastic. For chairs that need to be slid in and out from under a table, you might need a type of caster cup specifically intended for that purpose The only castor cup where the wheels stay in the cup when furniture is moved - From advertisement for "MagiGLIDE CASTOR CUP 4 PACK". I have not tried this and don't know if it is suitable for the intended use or whether the claims are justified. Castor cups are usually cheap - it doesn't hurt to try them on one chair.
You don't lose much if they turn out to be unsuitable.
