Hi Harry
My C60s Pattern 13 was came with 1200x20 Michelins on the front end when it was surplused. Didn't drive it much that way but I did note a problem of clearance to the brake hose. Didn't see any other problems. The truck has been running 1100x20s since I first put it back on the road 20 + years ago. Cheers Phil

Gday Harry,
Well sort of - these are 12.00 X 20's but in NATO bar tread pattern. They are a modern radial tyre. Ive only ever used these on my truck. They also steer extremely well as in they dont have that old bar tread habit of wandering.. I live in a flatter part of Australia so the effect of a bigger tyre slowing her down when going up a decent ascent isnt a problem. The brakes work fine (very well in fact) and when I did take the beast on a 16 hour epic to the coast, down some very steep descents, I simply selected a very low gear and kept it there. Ive repeatedly had the steering on full lock and never had the tyres rub on anything.
