think you have a typo the 11.00s will give you a top speed of about 60-62 and 395 will give you a top speed of about 69-72

"395" is the width in millimeters, but don't forget to include your aspect ratio, "80" or "85", which will give you the height. Furthermore, what matters when figuring diameter in the end is the "rolling" radius, which is used when figuring the revs/mile.
For the six 395/85R20 MV/Ts that I have for sale, the revs/mile is 445.....
1 inch=24.5 millimeters

I went back and corrected it. 59 is 2650RPM by the GPS and the tach. Tach could be off. The 395 speed was calculated relative to the "56MPH 2650RPM" figures seen in the manuals. I was assuming 56MPH was 2650RPM. No way to measure RPM except the tach.

Close, but 1 inch actually equals 25.4 mm.
Using the info on the sidewall is not a precise method of measuring size. It'll get you in the ballpark, but don't make any important decisions without getting the true dimensions.

Mark, I have read the posts, but did not see what tube size you used with the stock rim?

I have a tire guy nearby do the dirtywork for me--- But, I am pretty sure he uses the stock tubes- I will ask him next time I see him to make sure.
