I added airbags to the rear because with a really heavy load that is where it would rub. 20psi in the air bags and hasen't rubed since.

Really the only negative to me is stopping distance with a heavy load. When I had a exhaust brake on it wasn't a issue. And really it isn't a issue without the exhuast brake as long as your trailer brakes are in good working order.
