Those look like some kind of over the road truck tire. Like for a dump truck or the like.

Tread pattern is the same as a Michelin XZL... Can't read the size on the tire, nor the manufacturer name from the angle that the picture was taken...
Who's truck is it? Ask them...

I would guess firestone supertraction 11R20, unfortunately I don't think they are in production anymore.

Re: RE: What size/brand are these tires?
The angle in the shot below isn't the same as in the one above with the truck in question, but it may help. I'm looking mainly at the side and center block shape and pattern and trying to compare what I have with what's on the truck (on a relatively small monitor since I'm at work...).
Is it still at GL? If so, can somebody take a gander?? If not, who got it?
I may be, but I do have a bunch of the Michelins XZL's in my yard... Photos of them (one posted of a XZL here) are on my website... Both the XL and the XZL or shown on my Photo Page 5 (has shots of differnt tires).rizzo said:

Yep, there is a break in the sizes where they go from one center block to two... Not sure but I think it occures either at 12 or 14 inches in width. I know that the 900 and 1100 widths (both in 16 and 20 inch rims) only have a single center block.
It would be nice if somebody could actually look at the truck as I am finding this intriguing (and you can tell that my lunchbreak isn't that exciting today...).

What about the Goodyear G177 tires used by the military?

Looks like Ft Starke, Fl --- a GL site.

This truck is sitting in Jacksonville on the NE coast of Florida. Here is another picture that shows the tires better. These things look brand new.
