It appears to vary according to what part of the country ones located, but here in Ky 90% of the 4000AP's had 30" rear tires
The one in the photo has 16.9-30's.
The 4000AP and 4000SU have the same engine and drive line so there no difference in power output from ether one, but the engines were upgraded in mid 68 giving all of the 4000 models additional hp.
65-early 68 had 46 pto hp
mid 68-75 had 52 pto hp
A 4000AP is 5" taller and 10" longer than a 3000, also is 700 lbs heavier as shipped, mine with optional cast rear wheel centers is 1000 lbs heavier.
For the prier mentioned loader plans I strongly recommend the AP model over the SU, but I'd also want a quick-attach loader that can easily be removed when not needed, makes the tractor much for versatile in those tight areas.
Although I love my -000 series tractors if I was starting fresh I'd seriously consider the next up 4600 model, improved dry element paper air filter, larger hydraulic pump (needed for loader use), improved power steering that became available on the later 4000's, small things like engine driven tach, raised parking brake handle and flat top fenders are improvements I've added to my 4000.

I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery.
