Will the placement of casters on speaker stands degrade the performance

I recently purchased a new (used) pair of Magnapan 3.7i's.  They replaced a pair of 1.7's.  when I got the 1.7's I worked for weeks to get them tuned to the room.  At the end of that process, the 1.7's were like magic.  I am now going through the same process with the 3.7i's.  As I am getting older, the 3.7's (with Mye Stands) are much harder to move on my carpet.  My Question - Will placing casters under the stands degrade the sound quality and does anyone know the bolt and thread size for the Mye stands.  I would kindly appreciate knowledge, advice, opinion, etc.
Thanks in advance, js

Thanks so much to those who contributed thoughtful and reasonable content.  I managed to ignore those who were just trying to be cute, childish, and insulting.  I am especially thankful for the Magnepan resource that gave me the bolt size.  While I looked there I just missed the notation.
Thanks to all - even those submitting the useless attempts at humor.

07-06-2021 1:10pmHi johnspain! Casters won't hurt. I put my heavy speakers on casters, too. Just be sure you use casters that don't rattle when you shake them. The wheels should be free, but not loose or wobbly on their axels. Enjoy.
Thanks so much for the useful info.
