ISEKI TU1600 TIRES
The Iseki TU1600 tractor features both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with tire sizes optimized for agricultural applications—4.00-12 for the front and 8-18 for the rear in 2WD, while the 4WD variant utilizes a wider front tire (5.00-12). The 4WD configuration provides improved traction and stability in uneven terrain, making it ideal for field work and various agricultural tasks. However, 2WD may result in reduced maneuverability on sloped surfaces or muddy conditions; thus, the choice depends on the specific operational needs and terrain challenges.
