In Reply to: where did you come up with an 11x20 wheel? posted by mike stone on Thursday, March 06, 2003 at 4:32PM :
These are the 2.5Ton Budd rims & I think they're 9"....I'm not sure, maybe they're 8's.
I called Michelin before buying them & they couldn't explain why they list an 11" rim for them. You'll notice that if you go to that same site & look up a Michelin XML, they offer the XML in a 12.00-20 with almost exactly the same specs only they say that tire will run on an 8" rim. Almost every Unimog you see run these tires on 9" rims. I guess what it boils down to is that they don't advise it, so if you put them on, they'll not likely honor any warranty claims on them. That being said, I'm not going to lose too much sleep over it, they don't look too wide for the rim.
