BikerRN1 have you confirmed that no one tire has more than 3200# actual load? (90% of 3,520 tire capacity)


Where are the roads that have no pot holes?


TPMS do not warn of blet separation which is what appears to have happened to you. How old are the tires?
Do you do an anual"Free Spin" inspection? That would have probably shown an indication of the separation.



If you have confirmed you only have 1,936# on the heaviest tire you have one of the lightest trailers on the road. Your 11,000# scale weight doesn't work out with the other load numbers.
