FORD 1920 TIRES
The Ford 1920 tractor is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, offering versatility for different agricultural applications, with the 4WD providing better traction in challenging terrains. The 2WD model, equipped with standard ag tires, is more maneuverable on flatter fields, while the 4WD can enhance productivity in muddy or sloped conditions. Consider the specific tire sizes depending on your farming needs, as turf tires are designed for minimal soil disturbance, making them suitable for delicate lawn maintenance or landscaping tasks.
