I will average at least 4k miles per year, the bulk of it in the fall during college football season.
Also, in 2014, we put over 7800 miles on the trailer during one cross country trip.
My trailer only weights 4950# loaded and has ST205/75R14 tires. I put 4 new Maxxis on it in July 2013. Knock on wood, I haven't had any trouble with them, and they still do not show much if any tread wear.
At this point, I'd put 4 more on the trailer. But I wouldn't be afraid of the new Carlisle tire.
