Line check - check back or shove the river?

HJ: $238.65
CO: $286.30
BN: $276.15
SB: $224.45
BB: $206 (Hero)
UTG: $485.90
This is a rush poker hand. Villain has tag / nitty preflop stats and appears to be passive post flop.
Preflop ($3.00) (6 Players)
Hero was dealt 8 A
UTG folds, HJ folds, CO folds, BN folds, SB raises to $6, Hero calls $4
Flop ($13.00) T 7 9 (2 Players)
SB bets $8, Hero raises to $32, SB calls $24
I raise the flop to narrow his range and because it will be tough to get value if I hit my straight draw.
Turn ($77.00) T 7 9 A (2 Players)
SB checks, Hero bets $40, SB calls $40
I think I'm well ahead of his range now. I bet small to give him room to shove worse.
River ($157.00) T 7 9 A 9 (2 Players)
SB checks
This is a spot where its easy to check back thinking you won't get called by worse very often and sometimes run in to better. Should we usually be shoving instead?
