I gave up wheels for my carry on bags but do have wheels for my checked bag for trips where that much stuff is needed (or to check stuff the TSA doesn't allow).

1/3 of my carry on weight is electronics and cameras. The total of my carry on weight of stuff is slightly less than 10% of my total body weight and I can manage it very nicely.

Reducing the weight (empty) of my carry on bags really helped.
