Help with bed support wheel placement

Hello, my bed support wheel on the king bed end was loose when I required my 2018 HW27KS. I reattached it an inch to the right but it got in the way of the black nylon pull strap, so it didn't work. I ordered 2 wheels from Forest River and plan to attach them approx 12/16" apart, where I feel stud/frame. I'm hoping 2 will spread the load a little better.

Would anyone have a picture of how their wheel looks, as it sits under the bed? I'm wondering how much of the wheel should push against the underside of the bed, if at all. Also, if it has the wood resting on it, what happens when the metal frame hits it, as that hangs down a bit further, will it get knocked off again? I have looked on the queen bed end, but the wheel is not touching or doing anything, which doesn't seem to be a problem as that bed is not so heavy.

I have attached a pic, holding the wheel in place, so you can get a better idea of what I'm talking about.

On my HW27KS the wheel is mounted to the left of the fridge on the back of the dining seat. Getting into the bed can be tough enough without adding a wheel to put your knee on.
