If you go to the correct spider front hubs and 20 inch wheels new tyres are still advailible in 7.50 x 20 and 8.25 x20.
The 8.25 x 20 is a grader tyre advailible in a semi lug design well suited to a K5.
You will find the tyre crowds will not fit the tyres and you have to do it your self............just be very careful as it takes a while for most people to get their heads around the way the split wheel on the K5 works and you must wrap a long chain around the wheel loosely all the way around and hook it back on its self when inflating in case the old rims do not sit in the wheel correctly during inflation.
Take note the locking rim is not perfectly to round ????? and is flexed off the wheel by a bar at the cut away in the locking rim provided.
The out of round shape holds it in place and the split in the wheel on a deflated tyre also moves together to give room to remove the rims.
