    Tyre size

    Have a tractor with 540/80/38 Nokians on the rear,they say the equivalent size is 20.8/38. So does that mean 580/70/38 would also match? Think I’m right in saying they are the same rolling diameter. What width of rim would I need for the 580’s? Seen a set of 18 inch on eBay. Cheers
