ISEKI TU160 TIRES
The Iseki TU160 tractor offers notable versatility with 2WD and 4WD options, enabling tailored performance for various agricultural tasks; the 4WD configuration enhances traction on uneven terrain, reducing soil compaction. The tire sizes (4.00-12 front and 8.3-20 rear for 2WD; 6-12 front and 8.3-20 rear for 4WD) provide a good balance of stability and flotation, ideal for softer soil conditions. However, 2WD may present challenges in traction during wet or muddy conditions, making the 4WD variant more suitable for intensive field work.
