Glenn,
Don't know what to say about the TS. As to the Suites--you have a similar model to mine, and I would think your GVWR is 17500/18000? If so, your PW should be about 4200, leaving 13300/13800 on the axles. You have 4805/tire carrying capacity, and even if one side is heavier than the other, it shouldn't be anywhere near overloading any single tire--somewhere around 1300+ extra capacity per tire with the 17.5s.
You still will need to monitor the tread wear to make sure the axles are aligned ok--that is what got my Coopers way before the tread was gone--curb just jumped out at me and I had no time to dodge it...
Joe
