MAHINDRA 6520 TIRES
The Mahindra 6520 tractor offers two-wheel drive (2WD) and four-wheel drive (4WD) options, providing versatility for different agricultural applications. The standard agricultural tires (9.5Lx15 front and 16.9x28 rear for 2WD; 9.5x24 front for 4WD) ensure good traction and stability on varied terrains, while the industrial tire option (12.5/80x18 front and 19.5Lx24 rear) is advantageous for construction and heavy-duty tasks. It's important to consider tire selection based on the intended use, as ag tires excel in soft soil conditions, while industrial tires can enhance performance on hard surfaces but may compromise agricultural efficiency.
| Standard tires (ag) | Front: 9.5Lx15. Rear: 16.9x28 (2WD)/Front: 9.5x24. Rear: 16.9x28 (4WD) |
| Industrial front | 12.5/80x18 (4WD) |

DIMENSIONS & TIRES
The Mahindra 6520, with a weight range of 7100 to 7300 pounds, provides stability and robustness for various agricultural tasks, although its 2WD configuration may limit traction in adverse conditions. The front tires (9.5Lx15) offer moderate flotation, while the rear tires (16.9x28) enhance ground contact and load-bearing capability. This tractor is well-suited for flat to moderately sloped terrains but may struggle in muddy or hilly environments due to reduced rear-wheel drive performance.
