Tire temps on dual axel TT

I have a 2021 Forest River 21FBRS dual axel trailer that has a built in TPMS. My rig is a 2018 F150 with a Equalizer wd hitch.  I noticed that the tires on the front axel run about 10 degrees hotter than the tires on the rear axel.  Is this normal? I have been towing for about 10 years now and never had a TPMS that showed temperature but I have experienced LOTS of tire issues. Is it possible the wd hitch is not setup properly? Any thoughts?

    Sounds like your TT is slightly nose heavy putting more weight on the front tires. Probably not a huge deal and if you didn't have a TPMS you'd probably never know other than seeing if it's level when hooked up.
