MONTANA 2840 TIRES
The Montana 2840 tractor's tire specifications (Ag front 6.0-14 and Ag rear 9.5-24) indicate a balanced approach for both traction and stability, suitable for moderate fieldwork. The narrower front tires can enhance maneuverability, but may limit flotation in soft soils, necessitating a careful assessment of ground conditions. Overall, this configuration is beneficial for general farming tasks but may require additional tire options for heavier tillage or varied terrain.
