There is no problem in over sizing wire by one or two sizes. Going to much larger size than needed runs you into the problem of getting the wire into terminals of over current devices. Over current device terminals are close to the correct physical size for the wire ampacity size. This happens frequently when conductors have to be over sized for voltage drop over long distance runs but still have to be protected for the load current. Never under size a conductor as this will cause heating of the wire due to the load current being higher than what the conductor is rated at.
