I'm not sure what you mean by this. A set of tires will cost you $300-$400, and the lift kit costs about $40 and can be installed yourself or done by a shop for probably $50. But you may already have the lift kit as it was installed on later models.
So first off, what model do you have?
Perhaps more important than brand is weight capacity. I would simply install the tire with the greatest capacity I could find. Of all the brands you listed, except for Triangle for which I am unfamiliar, I would go with any of them, provided they all had the same capacity and they were all trailer tires. Do not install passenger vehicle tires on your trailer.
If you move up to a 15" wheel, you can get a E load range tire, which puts you in an even better position.
As you can see in my signature, I have had 2 Kumho blowouts, just 2 days apart.
