Thanks for all the insight, I appreciate it. When I'm moving the trailer in and out of the driveway it is at a very slow speed, no bouncing. Nothing is rubbing or hitting, the rear end doesn't scrape either (I really thought it would the first time I put it in the driveway), and I haven't noticed any difference in the way it tows, so hopefully I haven't done any harm. I have moved it in and out of the driveway at least five times now, so far no apparent issues. I will keep a close watch on the tire wear to see if anything looks out of the ordinary.
Interesting thoughts on the tire change scenario, food for thought.
Add: BTW, when I store it in the driveway I chock all 4 tires, as well as a 10,000 lb steel tie down I bolted into the concrete. I then attach an 8000 lb come-a-long cable winch to the rear axle, so I think I have it pretty secure once it's parked. My biggest fear is to wake up one morning and it's demolished after rolling down into the street!
