Tire brands and life expectancy for 5,000 pound TT?

Yesterday, I saw the date codes on my lady's TT tires. 8 years old... Does the normal 5 year recommendation for car tires also apply to trailer tires? And if so, what are the good and bad brands...

I did confirm that the dealer my lady got the TT from did put the tires on in 2014 when she bought it. She did not like how the existing tires looked.

Dirty birds installed "new" 4-year-old tires! At least they gave her a set of 5.
