DEUTZ-FAHR DX 4.30 TIRES
The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.30 tractor offers versatility with both 2WD and 4WD configurations, making it suitable for various agricultural tasks; 2WD provides simplicity and lower maintenance while optimizing fuel efficiency, whereas 4WD enhances traction and stability in challenging terrains. Standard tire sizes, with the 2WD utilizing 9.00-16 front and 18.4-34 rear tires, and 4WD featuring 13.6-24 front and the same rear size, indicate suitable weight distribution for most farming operations. Key considerations include the trade-off between fuel efficiency in 2WD versus improved pull and control in 4WD, especially during plowing or fieldwork in wet conditions.
| 2WD Standard tires (ag | Front: 9.00-16. Rear: 18.4-34 |
| 4WD Standard tires (ag | Front: 13.6-24. Rear: 18.4-34 |
DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Deutz-Fahr DX 4.30 offers a robust wheelbase of 91.7 inches (2WD) and 94.5 inches (4WD), enhancing stability across diverse terrains, particularly beneficial for agricultural tasks requiring precision. Weighing between 7937 to 8642 pounds, it provides a solid ground traction, essential for heavy towing applications, albeit potentially limiting mobility in softer ground conditions compared to lighter models. The tire specifications (9.00-16 front, 18.4-34 rear) indicate adequate load-bearing capacity, though 2WD operation may lead to reduced traction in muddy or hilly environments compared to its 4WD counterpart.
