INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER D-430 TIRES
The International Harvester D-430 tractor features an Ag front tire size of 5.50x16 and rear tire options of either 11x28 or 9x36. The larger rear tire can enhance traction and stability on uneven terrain, making it suitable for heavier agricultural tasks, but may lead to a tighter turning radius. Depending on the specific application, the selected tire size can impact the overall weight distribution and load capacity, so it's essential to match the tire size with the operational demands.
