There seem to be literally 100s of 13” trailer tires on the market...can anyone recommend one they have used and liked? Actual tire is 175/80r13. My trailer is maybe 1500 lbs total...2k tops.

One I found that I like:
Carlisle Radial Trail HD Trailer Tire-175/80R13 96M https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01M103OR4/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_PS2rDb3EMYN2A

Option 2:
Set of 2 Radial HD Trailer Tire 175/80R13 17580R13 Load Range D 97/93L for Boat Camper Cargo Horse,DOT Compliant https://www.amazon.com/dp/B077QMNVRR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_bd3rDb8W99W6H

13s are cheap temporary tires today. Good for a few thousand miles a year and never over 60mph. I grew up when 13s were the standard. Every small car came with them. Heck even Formula One tried 4 of them on the front of the Tyrell. 14s were the high performance low profile tires. Today basic starts at 15". And there are lots of good 15" trailer tires. But the 13s are utility tires, built for aluminium row boats or wheel barrows.
