Paul,
Tapping brakes stops the rotation before entering the wheel well. You do
not want them spinning into the gear well.

What do you do about the nose gear?

I can tell you what happens in the Navion. If you yank that gear up as
soon as you brake ground, the nose gear hits a rubber snubber to stop
it's rotation. Smells bad too. If you let it hang out a little
longer, the rotation isn't has bad.
