The tires should be balanced. Did you check the inside of the wheels?
Unbalanced tires can cause a lot more problems than tire wear. If the tires are out of balance it could cause undue stress on the entire camper. They can literally shake the cabinetry apart on the inside and cause parts to fall off all over the camper. Sometimes the vibration can be quite extreme in the trailer and you would never know it, unless you were riding inside (which I am not recommending).
