Firming wheels are very soil type and moisture dependent. They can firm into dry soils or pick up seed and mud in wet high clay soils. It's a very location dependent thing also a year to year thing. Love 'em or hate 'em. Deere used to offer them as an option on planters, complete with lock up system to get them out of the way.
