Default Question about lawn tractor tires

My tractor originally came with 15x6.00-6 and 20x10.00-8 tires. Can I
use a different size tire on the original wheel. Say a 15x5.00-6 on
the front for example?



The last digit is the rim size, As long as that number is the same as
in your example they will go right on. The 15X5.00-6 is a skinner tire
but same height.

So the first number is the total diameter of the tire end to end, the
second number is the width and the third number is the rim diameter?
What unit of measure do they use for the width? Thanks for your reply.

What I'm looking to do is have my "lawn and turf tires" and then
another set of "super bite" tires. I've never tried changing either of
these tires sizes but I do have a full size Coats RC15A industrial tire
changer.
