16.9X38 or 34. the taller tire will give you a wider bite and give you more ground speed at the same time by the height difference. It may be a perfect setup for a creeper gear A. When you change your drawbar angles, if you have a drawbar, watch how its flexing under its new settings,,, make sure it strong enough cause it should be pulling down harder on the hitch,,, Which happens to make the front end lift easier, and probably a little higher than the 3 inches your used to seeing,, So if you have weights to put on the nose, Id try it nose heavy a little more than usual, and move the weight back if its too much,, dial it in,,, I had a 43 and a 45 A, the 43 had a 125 kit and the 45 had a 90, both had the fast low gear, 14.9s were too much for em both, 15.5s were the ticket. The creeper gear JD we see pull, they try to run too short of tires, and they got power, but they spin and spin, and burn up the brakes, Not enough ground speed to even think of working the engine at the weight they try to run, and its usually 2000 lbs to light of class. I ran the 45 A in 5500 and the 43 A in 4500, the 45 had more snot, the fast gear and the big tires killed it,,if it had 10 more hp it would have worked out. But woulndt be considered stock in the right crowd to pump em up more. I thought they ran pretty good actually!! I did too much too quick, and ended up selling em. Wish I had the 45 back. Long dash, electric start, just a nice tractor to drive. I once knew whwere they was 2 long dash 45 A's rough but wasnt stuck,,, been thinking of going shoppin. ChadS
