How about a side view picture hooked up to the trailer? Chris
Would love to if I could figure out how to?

You just proved my point. Correct inflation = what the tire was designed for. You can tell that by what's stamped on the sidewall. If the tire says 80, put it to 80. If the tire says 40, put it to 40. I wholeheartedly agree that over inflation is as bad or worse than under inflation. How can one possibly justify asking the tire to perform as intended while not giving it what it needs to do so? Your truck, your tire, your call. But as for me and the safety of my family, I will run the tire as the manufacturer intended.
What are you smoking?
Wood Chip lowered from 80 psi to 75, and ride improved. Pressure on the side wall is MAX, as In MAXIMUM the tire is designed to carry. The OP's which will say I don't know the size or MAX capacity, but likely in the 3,500# figure per tire so 7,000#, and they are only carrying 5,360, he did state he moved a little more weight to the pin so give him credit for 5,500# 5,500/7,000= 80% of MAX so 80 psi is overinflated for that weight!
