ST tires should not be used at highway speeds. They are rated for 55 or 65 MPH top speed depending on the brand/model. When they go too fast the friction from the stiffer sidewalls cause them to overheat and blowout, just like if they are under inflated. If you are taking your trailer on the highway and travelling over 65 mph, get LT tires.
