FENDT FARMER 108S TIRES
The Fendt Farmer 108S tractor is equipped with either 2WD or 4WD configurations, influencing traction and stability; 4WD enhances mobility on uneven terrain while 2WD is generally more fuel-efficient on flat fields. The tire sizes highlight versatility, with larger rear tires (13.6/12-38) providing better weight distribution for tasks requiring heavy lifting. However, operators should consider the lower ground clearance of the 2WD option, which may limit usage in muddy or uneven conditions compared to the more capable 4WD.
