ISEKI TU1500 TIRES
The Iseki TU1500 offers both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with tire dimensions that enhance traction and stability across various terrains. The 4WD model improves maneuverability in challenging conditions, but may lead to increased tire wear and reduced fuel efficiency compared to the lighter 2WD version. In agricultural applications, selecting the appropriate configuration is crucial; 4WD is advantageous for hilly terrains, while 2WD suffices for mostly flat fields.
