[Farmall] Advice on Tires for an H.

[Bigdog]

Simon,
    That is tread width and rim diameter of the tire.  They would be a standard size for your H.  Miller Tire has them ranging from about $245 to $280 depending on brand.  I would think the Titan tires at about $245 each would serve you well

  Subject: [Farmall] Advice on Tires for an H.


  Hey,

  I have a '44 H that I use for light duty around the place.
  Yesterday I went out to find a blown rear tire, they were pretty gone 
  anyway and I have just been waiting for one to go so I can replace the set. 
  I know nothing about tractor tires so looking for some advice.

  The numbers on the tires read 12.4-38 (11 inch rim).

  So what do these numbers mean, I assume width and radius but of what 
  portion of the tire?

  Is this the original size or has someone swapped an incorrect tire in the past?

  Any recommendations on brand, tread type, ply etc?

  What price range should I be looking in for something decent for the kind 
  of light duty I am using the tractor for?

  Cheers and Thanks in advance,
  Simon
