higher percentage of tongue weight mitigates trailer sway .
this assumes your tow vehicle is a 2500 or f250 plus .
I moved my boat trailer axle to the rear about a foot a decade ago .
the additional tongue weight on the trailer hitch makes the boat trailer handle like a dream .
this option is limited for the f150 and 1500 tow vehicles .
having the 215 tires on the drivers side means that the crown in the road also plays into a small tilt downward to the passenger side .
until you upgrade to the 2271# capacity kumho 857 in size 205R14 load range D tire at your next tire replacement ..
Your best handling option with the tires you own is to mount both 215 tires on the rear axle and the 205 tires on the front axle .
if you mount the larger 215 tires on the front axle there may be a slightly lower tongue weight percentage .
smaller tongue weight percentage increases trailer sway .
higher weight behind the trailer axles is uncontrolled weight and acts using the lever principle to make our trailers sway .
higher weight between the trailer axle and the hitch is controlled weight and adds to safety .
