No, those were on my 2001 Prowler 26H which was quite a bit lighter than my present TT.
In fact, when I brought my present 2010 Sabre home. I immeadiatly switched the tires/rims from my old Prowler to my new Sabre. I would rather have old LTs than new STs. The buyer of my old TT was impressed with the brand new tires and rims he was getting. I was happy they made the trip home on the new TT and glad to be rid of them.
What is interesting is that the Michelins that I swapped to my new TT were a little under rated for it. The Michelins didn't seem to mind, and when they reached 5 years, I got the next size up.
On edit: My Sabre has two 42 gallon grey and two 42 gallon black tanks. So the weight isn't all concentrated in one spot.... And yes I have towed it home with all waste tanks full many times... 100% boondocking! Often for more than 2 weeks.

too heavy? The guy above 100% boon docking talks about 80 gallon black and grey tanks, lot of weight leaving on that back axle, those the tires that always seem to fail?
