The best way, is to get the weight on each tire is with a scale. You will not find the weight on all 4 tires the same because of the balance and load. Since most people, including myself never get the weight of each tire. I'm sure a TM the street side is much heavier with the fridge, kitchen sink, bathroom, water on the street side.

If you don't know the weight on each tire. I think it is recommended to use: Load less tongue weight, divided by numbers of tires, times somewhere between 1.15 and 1.25to to adjust for the load and balance and to have a safety factor. I use 130.0%
