I wouldn't spend 30 seconds worrying about whether the manufacturer will warrant the tire on a trailer. Those warranties are worthless anyway. The idea is to buy a tire that won't need a manufacturers defect warranty. And obviously a tread life warranty is not going to apply. Just buy the dealers road hazard warranty if that's your style. Only costs a few bucks per tire usually, and in my experience they are pretty good about honoring the warranty, no questions asked.
I doubt those road hazzard warranties will cover consequential damage to the trailer. Therefore spending extra money on higher quality tires is a better investment. Would you buy a 60-80k car or truck with tires that only cost the manufacturer 40 of 50 dollors each¿
