KUBOTA M90 TIRES
The Kubota M90 is equipped with standard agricultural tires, which provide excellent traction and stability in various field conditions, with a front tire size of 9.5-24 and a rear tire size of 13.9-36. A potential advantage of this configuration is improved weight distribution, enhancing plow performance and reducing soil compaction. However, the large tire sizes may limit maneuverability in tighter spaces, making it less suitable for smaller or densely planted fields.
