I had to put a set of skid wheels on our last TT it was 30 ft with about 8 ft behind the wheels and the trailer was built low to the ground.
To get in our driveway the skid bars would touch just enough to dig in the driveway. I replaced the skid bars with a set of 4" wheels.
I was surprised how often they would hit the ground leaving parking lots etc. you just need to be aware and take it slow.

I once witnessed a TT leaving a freshly paved McDonalds parking lot only to have those angled skid bars dig into the pavement....poor guy couldn't go forward or backward with the TV blocking 2 lanes of traffic...the guy even tried taking the equalizer bars off to get unstuck, ended up with a tow truck pulling them onto the street.
