The walk back to TBIT from the T-4 security checkpoint is about 5 minutes, so you'll probably save time using PreCheck vs. waiting in the TBIT security line. When I have plenty of time for a visit to the *A lounge, I don't even bother assessing the TBIT security line first: I just have the shuttle driver drop me off at "American Airlines PreCheck."
