If I knew how to post a picture onhere, I'd go take one of our tractors. I have a 4840 with 18.4x42s, and a 5488 with 20.8x38. They are excactly the same height. That is, the 20.8s are firestone 23 degees, and the 18.4s are Titans. Personally, I have ran 4840s with all three sizes you mention. For a work tractor, the smaller ones go a lot better for the powershift between 4th and 5th. The 20.8x42 arejust too tall to pull 5th, but too short to work the implements in 4th. But for road travel, you'd be amazed mow much speed you increase. The back of the tractor will sit quite a bit higher with the bigger tires. Also, it will tire scrub more in gravel and want to push the front end if its slick with the 20.8x42s. My 3.5 censt anyway.
