Tractor rears also have an aspect ratio like 85 or 65 or whatever, which is the ratio of sidewall height to width. You will see this specified on the newer metric radial tires, like an 460/85R38 would be equivalent to an 18.4R38 in the inch size; or a 600/65R38 would also be equivalent but is a lower profile tire. Just like in car/truck tires, as the aspect ratio gets lower you need a wider tire to carry the same weight at the same ply rating.
