Roller wheels

Would it be better to use roller wheels on the back end of the 30' instead of the steel plates that they have hanging down near the rear bumper?

The general consensus on here is no. The wheels are lower than the skids for one reason.

With wheels at the rear ,you would be carrying a lot of weight longer than a quick scrape,just watch ,if too steep go elsewhere..or maybe a lift kit?..
