I am not sure about GoodYear Marathons. I know a lot of people on this site have complained about them. I suspect they are OEM for at least OK quality plus they stand behing their tires, especially for RV's. I have some Marathons, but that Fiver sits now, for the most part.
Let's hear what other Marathon users have to say about their experiences, as GoodYear is a major player with a good reputation.

Without a doubt the best tire out there is the Michelin XPS Rib. It was originally developed as a commercial trailer tire. You might try a 215/85R16E on that trailer. The smaller size with the slightly higher profile should fit. They cost a bit more but it is a relatively small expense compared to the inconvenience and damage a cheap tire will cause. FWIW. Casey

They might have been good tires at one time (when made in the U.S) ,but once they went overseas,they went south in a hurry.
