Not wheels. When your technology is sufficiently advanced you un-invent the wheel and just hover everywhere.

Its very important that they can only hover and not float or fly. If they could float or fly then you wouldn't be able to do cool car chases in a society without cars

Humans harness fire now more than all of history combined. And fire is plasma.

I'm just saying, even the lowest tech has never really disappeared. We still use rocks and steam in our highest technologies. There's no reason to think aliens would abandon whatever tech has worked for eons.
