Good and bad brands depends on the tires size and load range. Generally the best brand is what a owner is using and the worst is the brand he had issues with.
Tires on trailers range form 13" at 1500 lbs capacity on up to 17.5" tires at 6000 lbs capacity.
So what size and load range are your OEM tires ??
And what is your trailers axle ratings ??
And ST tires are junk according to any RV forum but in the real world there are millions more ST tires on utility trailer, horse trailer, flat trailers, box trailers so on an so forth than there are on recreational trailers.
Hardly anyone on an RV forum will ever admit to running an ST overloaded, low on air, overspeed, or they clip curbs because they don't know how to drive, or like to pull over on debris filled shoulders.
I don't know how I have made it for years pulling trailers with ST tires, and the majority of them made overseas, without the issues reported on these boards. It must be a fluke.
