LS I3040 TIRES
The LS i3040 tractor features versatile tire options including agricultural, lawn/turf, and industrial categories, which allows for adaptability across various terrains and applications. Agricultural tires (7-16 front, 12.4-24 rear) provide excellent traction for farming, while the lawn/turf tires (25x8.5-14 front, 41x14x20 rear) minimize ground disturbance, making it ideal for landscaping tasks. Industrial tires (25x8.5-14 front, 43x16-20 rear) offer enhanced load capacity and stability for construction and heavy-duty tasks, though they may sacrifice some traction on softer soils compared to ag tires.
