The best upgrade for your TT
The best upgrade is ditching your Chinabomb tires. Chinabombs have a lot of squish and bounce. I tow with a 2500 Silverado and have a 28ft TT with an 8000# gross that came with load range C tires. Eve...

I’ll make sure I buy the cheapest tire next time since they’re all the same and it’s a placebo effect. Same goes for my truck tires and shocks. You guys just saved me a bundle of money.
Your welcome.
Only blowout I've had in 40yrs of driving including around 60,000miles towing was when a leaf spring on the trailer broke, swung out and ate the side of the tire.
Always buy off brand of the appropriate weight rating. Current tires that came with the trailer have just shy of 10,000miles and look and ride fine. About 1,300miles into a 10,000mile trip to Alaska currently.
When hooking up and removing the X-chocks, I make a point of checking the pressure things on the valves and verbally announcing tire good 4 times as I look at each (also check the brake lights, do a final walk around after pulling out of the site and brake check before hitting the road).
Once you get a good pattern, it really doesn't take much time. Assuming we don't need to dump the tanks, we can go from sitting inside to on the road in about 10min without rushing (slow is fast and fast is slow).
