busterbrown beat me to it, but let me add that there are dozens and dozens more threads here dating back to the beginning of the forum 6 or 7 years ago, all on the same topic and all with the same conclusions.

Leveling jacks or stabilizer jacks? Big difference in what they do and how much weight they are designed to support. Consider your exact parking situation and think about using them. My back yard is all sandy soil, and anything parked on it sinks in. I do use the stabilizers and set them down on several square feet of 2x10's. The tires are also up on 2x10's for the same reason. But if you're parking on firmer soil or concrete, or asphalt, the larger footprint is likely not needed. But the old timers recommend that you drive the tires up on boards if they're sitting on concrete for any length of time. Supposedly this prevents the concrete from leaching essential chemicals out of the tires and shortening their useful life. I did that with my Sunline and only changed out the tires twice over the life of the trailer with us.
