Question New tires for x23B - Maxxis, Carlisle, or Goodyear

So looking for new tires for my 2011 x23B

I know Maxxis is well liked....but Carlisle offers both load range C (1480#) & D (1710#) in a ST185/80R13; the Maxxis is just available in C (1380#) .

Goodyear Marathons C (1480#), are what's on it now, it doesn't appear the new GY Endurance is available in my size.

DTD has
Carlisle D for $59
GY Marathon for $82
Maxxis for $83

Tire Rack has GY for $67

I've seen Carlisle had some problems in the past and I've been around long enough not to want to put a "cheap" tire on my trailer (or TV )

But the load range D and the 81MPH speed rating has me considering...

Thoughts?

Tires

We have st185/80r13 Goodyear marathon mfg 2010 on our 2011 X23B.
About 15,000 miles on them. No problems, always kept max cold pressure in them. I will replace them this year with what, undecided, but had good luck with these.

I put the new Carlisle's on my 23B last year, I don't recall which model. They now have two load range D tires.

I like them, we did not put a lot of miles on them last year, but they handled nicely. I checked with Jayco, the rims where rate for the higher tire pressures. I installed 5 of them. Had them balanced, three of them were in need of under a 1/4 ounce.

I wanted Maxxis but had a hard time swallowing the price. Read a lot of reviews about a lot of tires and ended up with the Carlisle HD's. So far so good. No complaints. They track great and I can definitely tell the difference in the ride of the trailer.

Just pulled the htt out of storage. Checked the tire pressures, three were 65 psi, one was 64 psi. Last time they were checked was before Halloween when I put it away for the winter. The old towmax tires had to be topped off every trip.
