To quote your "The bike should hold its line in the turn but mine wants to run wide and I'm forcing it to hold" - thats why the tire is getting ripped up, you can mess with the suspension but is there a way you can alter your riding to use it to your advantage? Turning in earlier, then getting on the gas sooner? What about trailer braking a little harder to compress the front end more to keep a steeper rake angle? When does the bike fell like it running wide, entry, mid corner, or exit?

Trailer braking? My trailer doesn't even have brakes
