A cousin who works selling and repairing tires said to me that bias-ply are not so cheaper anymore, because of the tubes, and finding a tubeless bias-ply is not so easy...

I don't remember seeing many trailers with 8" tires, which I have only seen on Vespas and those Indian-made Bajaj tricycles. Most trailers I see use tires with a more regular size, either something around 165/70 R13 and 175/70 R13 that are the few 13" radials still found quite easily here, or the 5.60-15 bias-ply still easily found because of the VW Beetle.
