Front tractor tires

[pricefarm]

It's time to replace the front tires on my 5525 Deere. It currently has 11.2-24 on it. I would like to go with a tire alittle wider. Can I do that and what size could I go with that would still fit on my rims ? Iam thinking that when u go wider the tire will also get taller? If so that would mess up the the four wheel drive.

You have to keep the same ratio to the circumference (front tire to back tires) to keep from getting in a mechanical bind.

I would replace with the same size I have.

Probably can't go much wider without changing rims, and you would possibly lose some turning radius going much wider as well. If you're after more flotation I don't think you're going to be able to gain enough to matter, I would stick with the same size.
