There is no rhyme or reason to TT tires. Some are junk, some last forever regardless of brand or cost or place of manufacturer.
My set lasted 7 years, I put 15,000 miles on them plus whatever the previous owner had on them. They were Chinese and had enough tread left, I kept them for farm trailer use.
I keep them inflated to 50 lbs. and we do not get much sun damage in Indiana.
I agree. (yes I know 'whoopee-do' :B )
I think some owners cause their own problems. I would bet that your TT is balanced while towing. Meaning all four tires and both axles are all carrying the load equally.
Many owners do not weight them that way ...axle by axle.
It should be done because all trailers are balanced differently due to floor-plans and loading. Keeping in mind..axles also have ratings and 3500# axles are very common.
