You do tow light.
Our Elkmont axle weight weighed in at 3240# (including the WDH's 200#).
But I wonder about your scale. The manufacturer's listed dry weight for our trailer is 2940#, but that includes all options? Maybe you have zero options?

Anyway, yes, even if it was 2940#, that's ~ #1500 per tire and according to Marathon, that would be 30 psi up to 65 mph. And you might want to use this # to start as one wheel may have more weight than the other. But if you go over 65 mph, they say to add another 10 psi. So that's 40 psi.

I run 45psi on mine, but we're heavier. Still ... 2680# ????
