    there really is no need to change the size of the tires on your tractor due to a different size of tire on your trailer. I run 11R24.5 on my steers for the weight capacity, and LP24.5 on the drives, but LP22.5 on the trailer. Hopefully your tractor was set up right for the ride height for the tires that are on it, going to low pro's on it would not be as bad as going the other way, which sometimes causes the front edge of the trailer to then be overheight.
