Taa ..

My book said the same but every set of rims I have seems to have a different size and 11x20 seems to be popular.

Now to get rid of all the extras

Apparently, 1100-20 replaced 1050-20 during the war, and lasted for a long time afterwards, so that's probably what you want for the gun tractor.

Note this is a different size from 1100R20 (which caught me out, R tyres are on a reduced profile, so have a smaller overall diameter). It could be interesting to see if theres a modern R size that intersects with the old 1100-20 size, maybe around 1400R20.

1100x20 could be either, but seems more likely as 1100-20.

Lauren,Gina, I found a web site that gave sizes, but I didn't save the 1100 x 20 info.
A 7.00 x 20 = 180-100R20
A 7.50 x 20 = 190-100R20
A 8.25 x 20 = 210-100R20
