Have you done the math to see if a cassette change can get you what you want?
Most of us have little use for an 11T and/or 32T cogs.
Maybe something like a 12 or 13 or 14-25T cassette would make your big ring "usable"?
It would certainly be less expensive to try.

What's the lowest & highest gears you actually use/need?
