Combine tire size?

[MattLF9]

I"m not too good with the tire size thing but here it goes. My old combine needs new tires and right now it has 18.4-26"s on it but I want a tire that is as tall as a 23.1-26. I use this combine with a three row narrow corn head and the tire has to be the same width as the 18.4-26 or I will drive too much corn over. So what tire would be as tall as a 23.1-26 but the same width as a 18.4-26??

18.4x30 should come close, tho maybe a little shorter. 18.4x34 would be taller than the 23.1x26.

I would go with an 18.4x26 cane and rice tires. This will raise the combine about 4 inches and gives you extra traction when it gets wet. On alot of older combines there are braces that might get in the way of taller tires. When puting taller drive tires on dont forget to raise the steering tires hight as well. There are alot of these tires out there for sale for $350 to $600 on rims ready to go. Alot cheeper to buy them this way than buying them new. Bandit
