MASSEY FERGUSON 3660 TIRES
The Massey Ferguson 3660 tractor features standard agricultural tires designed to offer stability and traction, with 11.00-16 front tires and 18.4R38 rear tires for 2WD, or 14.9R28 front tires with 18.4R38 rear tires for 4WD configurations. The wider rear tires enhance ground support and reduce soil compaction, making it advantageous for fieldwork in various soil conditions. However, the choice between 2WD and 4WD may affect maneuverability and traction in challenging terrains, with 4WD providing superior grip in wet or uneven conditions but potentially increasing operational costs.
