.... right there where the search button is!:p

Type in: MPT wheels and start reading...!

Somewhere there you will learn that for the A3 wheels the 15.5R20's are as "wrong type tires" as the 395/80R20's are!

The only MIL tire sizes currently available as surplus that would qualify as "correct" for those 20x11" A3 wheels are 12.5R20 and 14.5R20.

Edit: size is 395/85R20, not 395/80R20!

.... MPT = Multi Purpose Tyre, a system almost ignored (???) for decades in the US but certainly not a mystery in Europe, especially not for the Unimog crowd and fire & rescue vehicles in general...
