I don't have any money anyway so this is all just idle speculation. My 4200 has 15.5X38s on it. They are pretty old, worn, checked, etc. So I look on CL from time to time for something used but good. And cheap. Looking in some OEM literature I have it gives the standard size as 13.6X38. 15.5s are listed as optional for a 5000 but not for a 4000.

As simple as a box plow appears, it can be rather challenging to make work correctly. In our sandy soils of Florida, traction is king. You can never have wide enough tires or heavy enough weights to get all the traction you want … unless you own a monster tractor. U
