I won't buy another Carlisle tire. I have heard that the newer tires are well liked and better quality that years ago. However, in the mid 90's I had a set of 4. After 1000 miles and two complete tread separations and damage to trailer (properly inflated) I attempted to get Carlisle to replace them and/or help with trailer repairs. They flat out said NO. Never again for me.
I've switched to LT's such as Michelin XPS Ribs and never looked back.
Yeah the old Carlisle Radial Trail were very problematic and prone to premature failure.
However the OP ask about the new Carlisle HD which came out just before Goodyear came out with their new Endurance tire.
Both are new and both seem to have shed their old image.
No complaints so far on either one on NHTSA tire complaints website.
Moving to a all steel ply carcass commercial grade XPS Rib LT E tire IMO was the best upgrade in tire for a trailer. All steel ply carcass tires are in a class all their own.
