I cannot comment on other brands ,but I have Marathons on my dual axle trailer currently and have had Marathons on my previous two single axle trailers. I have only had one blowout in all my years of pulling trailers . I was coming back from Vermillion don't know if I hit something but it happened. I also add I (sometimes) drive fast ,not unusual to push 80mph trying to get to my destination. If I didn't have history with Marathons and read some of the previous post, I would question if I should pull them off and replace them.
IMHO if you keep them inflated properly,rotate them on a regular basis and look for issues before they happen you will be good . Have a PM plan and any quality tire will get you where you need to go and get you back. also check your hubs/bearings as they will add to tire failure also. Just remember tires will fail or we wouldn't need to have spare tires on our trailers or vehicles.
