Tires rubbing

[Dave and Cindy]

2016 Imagine 2800BH. So crawled under the trailer for other issues and noticed that all four of the tires had rubbed on the bottom of the body. Took it into the dealership, they said that they ordered new heavier duty springs to fix the problem. Has anyone else seen this on their 2800BH? We were not overloaded and not off-road, so I assume that maybe they rubbed on a parking lot entrance, not sure, but still not cool. Looking at the springs…they all look flat. Any other trailers, not necessarily camping trailers, all have a curve to them. Kids were following on our trip to Yellowstone and said that the trailer seems to bounce a lot compared to our previous one, so may look into installing shocks too. Hopefully they are not hitting while traveling on the highway! But if they did, then that could explain early tire failure/blowouts, meaning that the tires hitting the body at 60MPH would cause the blowout. Not defending the Chinese tires but… Going to post this in the Tech Section also.

No issues here. I measured and have a little over 3 inches of space. Something else to watch for.

No evidence of mine ever rubbing. I actually saw somewhere that someone had gone up to a 1" taller heavier duty tire with no issues on a 2800. Sounds like you may have a suspension issue.

Apparently our springs were bad. Dealer replaced with thicker curved ones and it lifted the trailer about 3 inches. You can actually now see the tops of the tires...looked like a low rider before.

Dave,

How are the new springs working out? Would you know what capacity springs they installed on your trailer? I see the 2019 model 2800BH and 2600RB are being sold with 4400 lb axles and tires with upgraded tire size.

Can you share what was done to resolve the issue and if any more issues have happened?
