Only my opinion, but 12.4's are the ideal size for the H, 13.6's at the most. 15.5's are three sizes bigger than 12.4's. When you increase tire size too much, you actually decrease pulling power, because it takes more power just to turn the wheels. With 15.5's, the speed in each gear will be higher, meaning you pull less in each gear. That would decrease performance with a disk, but actually might be better with a hay rake (thus the optional 7 mph 4th gear). Sprayer speed is only limited by gallons/acre, and at what speed you are most comfortable running the tractor. I don't know if the 560 rims fit or not, but 15.5's are definitely too big for the original rims. I believe your tractor will appear to be running down hill. People do put 15.5's on Super M's, though.
