When I had a boat and trailer, the tires were 20 yrs old. I kept the
tires covered so they would not have UV degradation, and they were the
original tires when I sold the boat. I would guess the tires were under
inflated, and that will cause the tires to get hot.

That is the key! They will dry rot before they wear out. Keep them
away from ozone (electric motors), grease/oil, and UV and they should
last a long time.
