The OEM Westlakes have been flawless for me since 2015. Haven't looked closely at them since last Fall tho' but figure it's time for new instead of pressing my luck. The $500 for tires is far better than a $500 deductible (or whatever) on 5'er damages caused by a blown tire + all the other expenses and grief of the situation. Of course there's no guarantee there will never be a problem. I like buying USA made stuff when available and well built.
Trailer tires are certainly cheaper than pickup tires.
