I see that.
I have quickly skimmed over the document. Since I have been researching tires for awhile this part jumped out and I like technical details.
Page 960 Commando Special Tire.
The 365/80R20 tire indicated is the upgraded "modernized" rim/tire package, after the original "commando" tires where no longer used and the rims where standardized at 20". The most common tire used was/is the MICHELIN XZL, XL and XML.
This size of tire can not be used on a Ranger/Peacekeeper, no matter how hard you try as it uses 9.50" x 16.5" tire.
Weights
XZL: 75 kgs
10x20 rim: 38 kgs
3 piece run-flat insert: 40 kgs
Tire Chain: 31.5 kgs
A bit of history for those interested, the original Commando tire details.
14.5" x 21" tire, it weighted 357 lbs/162 kgs.
