I had a list of current tire sizes and the old case sizes that they represented and have went from my list. guess it doesn't surprise me the list is off. But not sure how a 14.9x38 is a bigger tire than a 15.5x38.

Look at Firestones chart, a 14.9 - 38 is closer to a 16.9 -38 and is larger than a 15.5. The 15.5 is a "low profile" tire and a 14.9 is a taller tire, therefore, more rubber on the ground. That is what makes it a "bigger" tire.

A 14.9-38 is a TALLER tire than a 15.5, but has a narrower tread width. The 14.9 puts a slightly larger footprint on the ground due to it"s larger diameter/circumference. Mike
