Tire life?
My question is I have S637 tires that are 12/15 dated with lots of tread so what’s the usual life span on these tires? Also they list 110psi on the sidewall and I’m running 80psi. Should I air them ...

Well, since the "new" ST Sailun's are the same as the "old" LT Sailun's, what do you suppose they did?
To use the ST prefix they had to change the carcass construction. It's the only way they could increase the load capacity between the two by 650#. Of course, that's the ST235/85R16 LRG. The ST235/80R16 LRG, being all steel, is probable a completely new construction.
The off shore tire builders do not waste much time in being competitive. They have flooded the market with numerous brands building these two Sailun sizes. Even the grand daddy ST builder has reciently introducrd their verson of the popular steel tires. With retailers such as Walmart, Sams and Discount Tire providing them they will become popular replacements when the need arises on the road.
Look Here!
You couldn't give me a Carlisle, I'm not convinced they're any better than the ones I owned some years ago. Maybe in a few years after they've been out for 4 or 5 years with no issues.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying here. "Sailun sizes"?
