Hi,
I'm familiar with the size markings for road tyres. For example our Landrover has 235/85 16 (omitting load, construction and speed rating). Meaning 235mm wide, height is 85% of width, and 16" rim diameter. If omitted, aspect ratio is 80%.
Tractor tyres seem to have either fewer or more measurements. For example 7-16 is presumably 7" wide on 16" rim. Height is what, 80% of the width like a road tyre, or something else?
Turf and some industrial have more sizing figures, for example 27 x 8.5-15. I can guess that's 15" rim diameter utility what does the 27 indicate?
See a couple of examples of agriculture and equipment turf or industrial tyres ..
