Tires for F60L
 

Hello

I am ending my FORD F60L and I am looking for new tires. I have found a shop in GERMANY which sold tires 1100X20 with NATO shape.
Is any body having soon mounted such tires on a F60L?
Thank for any answer

Regards Serge

Hello Serge,

20-inch tyres with the NATO tread pattern are often used on CMP trucks, see the picture of one for sale in Holland. Personally I think they are perfectly acceptable as they are better than 70 year old tyres.

You could also check out other types available at www.vrakking-tires.com (no connections), they have a wide variety of 20-inch tyres in stock.

Hello gentleman,

I have a question regarding those tires (NATO 11.00-20).
Is anybody able to measure the outer diameter when the tire is attached to the disk? (or NATO 10.50-20)

Or maybe a better question - what was the original CMP 11.00-20 (or 10.50-20) outer diameter please?

Thank you!

Martin,

There was significant variation in the dimensions of the tires produced by the various manufacturers during the war.
