I do it everytime I go on my monthly Trader Joes/WholeFoods/Publix grocery run. Takes all that space to get all the groceries on the bike. That's using Ortlieb Rollers front and back and the Yak on a 56 LHT. No problems at all except it gets a little wobbly with all the weight. That's a heavy load!
I have hand-built 36h wheels from RockyMt Cyclery. No mods to the hub -- just changed out the skewer for the Bob mount. My rack is a Topeak. Again, clearance is totally fine.
