11.00-16's are paired with 20.8-38 rears. The 4430 parts catalog lists 9 or 10 different front tire sizes for 2WD tractors.

I need front tires for my JD 4430, they have 11.00-16, my question is what ply of tire should I purchase? Am mainly doing field work.

Deere specified 8 ply tires in 11.00-16 size for the 4430 according to the manual, so I would get at least an 8 ply tire. More plies are fine, but fewer plies is not.
