The numbers you referenced for your tires, 20 x 10 x 8, are the older tire sizes for a 6 inch rim, and have been replaced with different numbers. If the tire you have is a 10 inch tire, the replacement for that would be 205/64-10 for a 6 inch rim. If you have an 8 inch tire, you can check out the attached helpful article about tire sizing and find the options on the chart for 8 inch tires.

You will want to choose the tire by the load range rating you need. For instance, the tire I recommend for a load range E is the Loadstar K399 Bias Trailer Tire, part # AM1HP56. This has a 10 ply rating and can handle a maximum load of 1,650 lbs at 90 psi.

For a lighter duty tire, you might check out part # AM1HP50. This is a 4 ply tire and has a maximum load rating of 910 lbs at 35 psi.

I have attached a link to the tires that would work for you. you can use the filter at the left of the page to choose the tire by Load Range and see what works best for you.
