Yes I did search and yes, the question surely has been asked million times. With all the oversize single threads and the deuce and 9xx series dominating, I could not find a good thread on it. So here goes.
This is Tatra land here and I get can new surplus army tires 12.00x20 for about $ 120, about half of what I would have to pay for similar quality 11.00x20. So worth considering when buying 11 pieces. Question is, can you use these as duals on an 1973 M51A2 using the original rims, do you need spacers to get enough room between tires and is it advisable at all.
I do NOT want to look extra cool, change from duals to super single, get a few miles more out of the old girl or anything like that, just an economic consideration without endangering the integrity or safety of the vehicle and its crew.
When looking for that answer, I came across another MV forum with some nice historic drawings of our beloved MVs in action.
