Tire rack cheapest was $105. Walmart has Tornel for $76. Are Tornel any good?

I'll look at simple tire too
Simple sells Tornel, but I have never owned one. They are made in Mexico, owned by an India company apparently .. from Simple's website:

Tornel tires​

Based in Mexico and acquired by India-based JK Tyre group in 2008, Tornel is one of the biggest tire manufacturers in Latin America and specializes in period-correct tires for vintage cars that are built with modern technology.

Its products are of excellent quality and ensure driving safety along with top-notch performance. Tornel has its three facilities located in Mexico and the company premises act as a base for JK Tyre for its expansion in the North American region.

For that usage I'd definitely go with a bias ply tire. They tend to be cheaper, stronger, and it really won't matter how much out of round they are.

Goodyear Endurance load range D. Made in USA. After 2 blowouts on China bombs, this is all I run.

My trailers all get black round tires that hold air. Same for 2 of my vehicles. Thousands of miles combined each year..even on the trailers. Never a blow out. All Dryrot or get low on tread prior.

I buy tires off amazon or walmart.com

"P" tires are passenger car tires, made for a soft ride. If you want durability and low cost, buy bias-ply "ST" trailer tires.

Many years ago there was a member here, Diamondpilot, that seemed to know what he was talking about and he highly recommended "Greenball" sold by Costco as the best bang for the buck.
I looked at costco and nothing was cheap, and the selection was very limited. I was kind of surprised.
