Wings Indirect or Direct ASAP

I have done wings before and they come out good. This time I am doing over 60 wings, separated. I would like to do direct by raising the grid to gasket level and I have another grid rigged up. 4". I cook the wings at 350.
My concern are the wings on the grid at gasket level. Will they burn at that level if the wings are cooked direct ? Or would indirect be better ? Or would I want to cook at a lower dome temp ?
I am about to light the EGG. So any advice will be helpful.
Thank you.

Go direct, and rotate the top wings to the bottom and vice versa after 20 minutes or so. Just keep an eye on them and you'll be fine. I usually do my wings direct these days.

You will be fine raised direct, just watch the temp, and Fidel's advice is good.

325 ok ?

I do mine at 400-425*. 45-60 minutes max

I sincerely hope the OP has figured out how he likes his wings by now, given we’re 9 years on.

No worries. As long as you got the answer you needed. How did your wings turn out?
