Does anyone know if Carlisle will pay for any repairs if one of their tires fails and damages the trailer? Thanks Chino

Every situation is different and any information you get from another consumer may not apply in your situation. The only "opinion" that really matters is that of the manufacturer's warranty department. I'd suggest you discuss the problem with the tire dealership where you purchased the tires. Or, is that doesn't get you the answers you need, you can contact Carlisle at: 1-800-260-7959

Also, you can download the "consumer warranty claim form" at: http://www.carlstargroup.com/cms_files/original/Carlisle_Tire_Warranty_Submission_Claim_Form1.pdf

Here is the entire Carlisle Tire Warranty, take a look at it and especially the parts I've marked in red:
Highway / Non-Highway Tire Warranty

The Carlstar Group LLC warrants, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations stated herein, The Carlstar Group’s tires and wheels to be free from
defects in materials and workmanship. The Carlstar Group’s liability for tires and wheels shall be limited to replacement of any defective tire or wheel plus any applicable taxes.

3. The Warranty does not cover incidental or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, lost time, inconvenience, loss of vehicle use, cost of towing or transportation, related property damage or consequential damages of any type or nature.

4. The Warranty does not cover mounting and balancing charges.

NO REPRESENTATIVE OF THE CARLSTAR GROUP HAS AUTHORITY TO MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR PROMISES EXCEPT AS STATED HEREIN.

Some states do not permit limitations on the period of an implied warranty and do not permit the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, therefore the above limitations or exclusions may not apply. This warranty provides specific legal rights. Other rights may vary according to the state/province in which the original purchaser is located.
