Modern Tractor Discussion Board Topic: 42 tires on 1486?? [Return to Forum] Author [expand] [Modern View] Larry B 1486 04-07-2009 18:14:38 67.142.161.34 20374 Report to Moderator Does anyone know if there is enough clearance to put 42" tires on a 1486 cab tractor? I know they use step rims, 38 to 42, on fender tractors because you can raise the fenders. I am wanting to go from 20.8 X 38 to 18.4 X 42 [Reply]  [No Email] Reaver 04-10-2009 09:10:03 63.18.227.71 20378 Report to Moderator Re: 42 tires on 1486?? in reply to Larry B 1486, 04-07-2009 18:14:38   What is the reason it seems so many people are moving to 42 inch tires?
