DEUTZ-FAHR DX 3.70 TIRES
The Deutz-Fahr DX 3.70 tractor offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, allowing farmers to select based on terrain and application requirements; 4WD provides superior traction and stability in challenging conditions, particularly with standard 12.4R24 front and 16.9R34 rear tires. The optional tire configuration (13.6-24 front and 13.6-38 rear) may enhance flotation on soft ground, making it suitable for diverse agricultural tasks, although it may slightly reduce maneuverability in tight spaces. Consider your farming environment; 2WD suffices for flat terrains, while 4WD excels in hilly or wet areas, maximizing efficiency and productivity.
