I'm not aware of any tire manufacturer that will guarantee a tire not to fail but there have been many RV.net members who have switched tires types/brands after failures and have not had any more failures. Seems to me that would indicate something that would cause any RV.net member to give serious consideration to changing tire brands/type after experiencing 3 tire failures which also caused major RV damage. After owning a 5th wheel for 6 years, if and when we ever purchase another, the consideration of the warranty provided by the manufacturer will be a distant second to the manufacturer who requires the least amount of warranty repairs. Warranty repairs are not free and in fact are a real hassle.
