Neither, you should do all 4 at the same time. Do a search to explain the reasons why.

Put the new ones on the same axle. Put the least warn on
the other axle. I don't think it matters which axle.

I'm saying...They don't understand my situation. I don't use it for traveling Im Literally living in it at the moment. I've had some health issues. It is what it is. I may take it out once or twice eventually. But my main concern is if a hurricane comes and I have to pull it out of here. My tires are original 2015 trailer. Great tread but don't trust them. I want to feel somewhat safe I'll get the other 2 tires when I can. Was just wondering if the front axel or back was more important. I realize I should do all 4.

Put new tires on the rear axle (considering it being a straight axle). If something (God forbid) happens while driving, you'll have better control over the rig taking that the unchanged tires would be the first to blow.

Thanks, that makes sense to me...
