We had a Maxxis tire losing air on our trip over spring break. Thanks to the TPMS I was alerted to it and was able to pull over and put the spare on. I have Maxxis 8008 LR E tires and due to availability and the fact we were heading on spring break I purchased and had a GY Endurance LR E installed. Plus I liked the stiffer sidewall and speed rating of the GY.
I had the Maxxis installed on 6/30/2015 and we probably have about 20k miles on them.
My question is should I replace the other 3 Maxxis tires now with GY tires to keep them the same brand and age. My plan was to replace all 4 next spring before camping season but that may need to change. Or should I just run the 3 Maxxis and 1 GY Endurance for this season and replace the 3 Maxxis next spring? We do about 7k towing miles per year. tks

You have satisfied the basic question about using different brands. All tires are the same size and design. Almost all ST tires have similar tread patterns.
Maxxis trailer tire warranty is for four years from the DATE of manufacturer code on each tire's sidewall. When do you feel comfortable? At warranty drop dead date, or sooner, or later?
