M353 tire questions

[Nelsonb]

I have a m353 I’m goin to make into a trailer for the farm. Is the stock tires 11/20 good for this. I have access to two brand new 335/80/20 tires for cheap. They look a little flatter so I’m thinking more stable wor weight. Won’t be driven on road very much.which way should I go?

It really depends on the load being put on them, the rating, terrain you'll be driving and usage.

Those are much better tires but you will need 20x11 (MPT) wheels for them. (like what comes on the M35A3).
Your stock wheels are not compatible: different bead style, slightly larger diameter (specs attached), besides being way too narrow.

I have used these trailers on my farm for years. Great units. I have always replaced the original tires when they were found to not be up to the work any longer with G177s from Goodyear or 831s from Firestone.

1000-20s used on intermodal trailers are up to 7700lbs. They are tube type tires.
