Trailer tires like # LHWL300 rarely wear out due to mileage actually. Typically they need to replaced due to age (between 4 and 6 years) as the tires begin to break down and become more likely to blow out. This is why it seems that trailer tires blow out more than vehicle tires. It's that vehicle tires just end up with so much more mileage on them that they wear out before they break down and trailer tires normally spend more time parked compared to vehicles.
