It just occurred to me that my XJ is loaded and balanced just right when the rear tire just rubs the inside of the trailer fender.

On full widths, the tire would have to sit entirely behind the fender. I've accidentally loaded it like that before, and it left the tongue way too light. The trailer really wanted to wag.

Now I'm more careful.
