Kar Kaddy Tow Trailer -Wheel balancing

I have a Kar Kaddy tow trailer , which of course has just two wheels. I am going to replace the tires and I am wondering if I should balance the tires, is required would it improve longevity of the tires?

Thoughts

I say, yes, have them balanced so they wear evenly and do not cup. Of course, they need to be trailer type tires and not passenger vehicle tires, for their load rating.
