Tire wear and blaking power was very poor on our 16k 5er. I changed the 2 7k dexter manual adjust 12x2 brake axles for 2 8k dexter axles with 2 3/8 x 12 1/4 forward self adjusting brakes. Upped the tires( worn out china bombs) to G from E. 8 years later, about 35 k miles later the tires are still good, brake power much better and dont overheat.
Look into upgrading the axles and tires. Its a simple 3 hour wrench job. Sell your old axles recover part of the cost.
