Like dropping an anchor, it's not a big deal if moving unless it catches something or digs in. Wheels w/a larger diameter change the scrub-line dimension offering more wiggle room for a taller block w/o the possible contact concern.
This is just something to be fully aware of when it comes to different lowering methods.

Thank you, So a larger wheel may help as I go lower.
