The Transportation Museum at Fort Eustis forwarded an excerpt of a report
on the XM147 and it stated thatit had 12.5 x 20 tires. I have not come across
that flavor before. Were they used on anything else? Are the old 5 ton
M51 series truck 11 x 20 rims interchangeable with the 6 lug pattern of
an M135? I should pay more attentionwhen I'm at the rallys and I would
not have to ask such questions.
Thanks
