I agree that in general this would be the preferable way of working with the trust store however using self signed certificates streamlines much better with my application and therefore my preference at this point is to find a proper way of refreshing the trust store in the JSSESocketFactory.
I'm still looking for a solution to this...

If your processes allow, you would be better off creating your own (self-signed) root CA, using that to sign client certs and then adding your CA to Tomcat's trust store. That way you can add new client certs without any changes to Tomcat.
