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. Looking further, I see that 15.5s are nearly identical in height as a 13.6 - only about 1/2" different. So what would be the advantage be of one size over another? I will probably add fluid to these just for stability but probably never do any real heavy draft work with it where the added weight in the 15.5s would give me that last ounce of traction. 13.6s do seem to be more common and thus would be easier to find.

At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
