Any brand sold by a reputable dealer will do. I had a set of Goodyear Marathons that were on my trailer when I bought it used and in good shape. I put 15,000 miles on them in the last 15 months including trips to Baja and north to Alaska.
I finally had to replace them NOT because of the tires but because my worn suspension wore one tire badly and I replaced all four...they were ELEVEN years old.
The MOST commmon casue of tire failure is underinflation and since it happened to 3 tires on one trip that would be my guess.
I replaced my Goodyears whith a set of Towmax of a higher load rating and 80psi vs the 65 of my Goodyears.
Most tires come with road hazard protection...a good reason to buy them from a nationwide dealer...and some level of treadwear gaurantee pro-rational replacement.
Try not to listen to those on this site with Axes to grind about a specific tire brand or where they are manufactured. ALL tires sold in the US are manufactured to DOT and stricter international standards despite where they are made.
