CLAAS ARION 640 TIRES
The Claas Arion 640 features a wheel setup with front tires sized 16.9R28 and rear tires 20.8R38, offering enhanced traction and stability for a variety of agricultural tasks. The larger rear tires improve weight distribution and reduce ground pressure, which is advantageous for working on softer soils. However, the specific tire sizes may limit maneuverability in tight spaces, making it less optimal for small, confined fields.
