Curves do not in themselves create more drag but, yes, the airflow around the tires can be routed to generate ground effect.

Note all the little craters. And that's the SMOOTH area of the moon. How is a skyscraper like Starship HLS supposed to land and remain upright? Apollo Lunar Module had automatic landing too. Armstrong had to take over from the computer because it was about to set them down in a field of boulders.

Among the most idiotic things about Starship HLS is the colossal amount of wasted crew cabin volume. Their crew cabin doesn't carry any more astronauts than shuttle.
