MITSUBISHI GAK550 TIRES
The Mitsubishi GAK550 tractor, equipped with Ag front tires sized 8.3-20, offers enhanced maneuverability and traction in various agricultural settings. The use of 400mm tracks on the rear enhances soil grip and reduces ground pressure, minimizing soil compaction and promoting better crop health. A potential challenge could be the cost and availability of replacement tracks, which may require careful budget considerations for long-term maintenance.
