I do have a few options for your 2016 GMC Sierra 1500 to reduce sag and maintain ride quality but your choices will be limited due to the magnetic ride control your truck is equipped with. Since airbags will not work well for your application, I recommend taking a look at either the SuperSprings Custom Suspension Stabilizer part # SSA28 or the SumoSprings Solo Custom Helper Springs part # SSR-209-40.

The SuperSprings will have a bit more load leveling capabilities than the SumoSprings but the SumoSprings will not sacrifice as much or if any ride quality. The choice will be up to you but as long as neither of your trailers have a tongue weight greater than 1000 lbs, I recommend using the SumoSprings as these should still provide you with plenty of support and will not comprise ride quality.

I have attached an installation and review video on the SumoSprings for you as well.
