KUBOTA MZ505 TIRES
The Kubota MZ505 tractor is equipped with standard agricultural tires that provide a balanced traction-to-durability ratio, essential for field operations. The front 8-18 tires offer good maneuverability, while the rear 13.6-28 tires enhance stability on uneven terrain; however, tire selection may limit performance in muddy conditions. For optimal efficiency in heavy tillage or loader applications, considering higher flotation tires could mitigate soil compaction.
