FORD 4630 TIRES
The Ford 4630 tractor offers versatility with both 2WD and 4WD options, allowing it to adapt to various agricultural tasks. The 2WD configuration is more fuel-efficient and simpler in maintenance but may struggle in uneven terrain, while the 4WD setup excels in traction and stability, especially in soft or muddy conditions. Operators should consider their specific field conditions and workload demands when choosing between these configurations to optimize performance and efficiency.
