Well, they both still belong to the category "heavily armoured military vehicles", so I think everyone understood what you meant with "tank", even when some of these heavily armoured military vehicles aren't mainly for offensive action and don't move with tracks.
For invasion purposes, wheeled personnel transport is probably scarier than a tracked tank.
A tracked tank will go over most things and have firepower sure.
But if I had to take over an enemy position and got to choose either a personnel carrier's worth of infantry or one tank, I'd take the infantry. Much harder to kill an entire team than completely disable a tank.
