With our trailer parked here at the house during the camping season the curb side tires are exposed to full sun the entire day so I do cover them. I have a set of vinyl tire covers made for the purpose but find them a PITA to install / remove so I instead use a piece of Reflectix, secured in place with shock cord behind the tires.

The street side tires are shaded the entire day by the neighbour's house so I don't bother covering that set.
FWIW, I also cover the trailer's entire tongue area with a vinyl weave cover which really helps minimize black plastic parts like the battery boxes, propane tank covers, tongue jack head, etc, from prematurely fading.
