Actually the footprint of the tires would be about the same. Here in Ohio they were called a standard tread tractor (Some of the wheatlands had bigger fenders) and were used for the tillage while smaller tractors did the planting-cultivating. We had both a John Deere A rowcrop narrow front and a AR low built and wide front. The orignal tire size on the A was 11 X 38 and the AR 13 X 26 so even with the smaller diameter the wider width of them gave about the same total sq in of foot print area so you still had the same amount of traction. The tractors were geared so that they had the same speeds except for 1st gear the AR was slower but we never used first anyways but for pto powered items that required a very slow speed the AR was better than the A but always used 2nd on PTO in either.
