Don't think so. You'd need to be at 7720 for them to fit. I think

Aren’t they the xeobib equivalent to 650/65r38 in which case they would fit and are smaller diameter than the tyres the op mentioned.

650/65r42, 620/70r42 and 520/85r42 are all of nearly identical rolling circumference. They are way more tall than say 600/65r38 or even 650/65r38.
An educated guess would be that the large chassis tractors, starting with 7720, would be a match for them, not the smaller chassis ones from 7718 down.
For a 7715, the largest mainstream size in terms of rolling circumference and height would be 650/65r38. However I don't have a current price list to confirm this.
The tractor in the picture above has nice size tyres. 20.8 inches wide but a nice low profile. I have recently fitted a set of BKT's that size on my New Holland 8360. I also have taller tyres of the same width on my Same i.e. 520/85r38 [20.8r38]

Why did you jump up to 42s

flotation and wheel grip
We have Michelin 650/65/42 on a 7480 which came off a 6495, they are very close to the fender near the steps, probably about 75% when we put them on, when changed to new tyres i thought they might be that close they will hit, but they got changed for BKT which are noticeably smaller so bare this in mind.
7480 is on the left

v much like at the time the next evolution of the previous 6200 range eh.
Skipped that series all together & went from 02 6290 to 08 T3 perkins 6480
still had the 6290 at the time, only sold it to buy a 2nd Sisu t3 6480 which is the only one here i still have.
