KUBOTA M7500 TIRES

The Kubota M7500 tractor is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations, with the latter providing enhanced traction and stability in challenging terrain, making it ideal for tilling or fieldwork on uneven ground. The standard tire sizes are designed to optimize load distribution and minimize soil compaction; however, the choice between 2WD and 4WD can significantly affect fuel efficiency and operational costs, with 2WD being more economical on flat lands. For scenarios requiring high maneuverability and power, the 4WD option will enhance performance, while 2WD may suffice for less demanding applications.
