OLIVER 2455 TIRES
The Oliver 2455 tractor features large 18.4-34 Ag tires both front and rear, providing excellent traction and stability on uneven terrain, enhancing its performance in agricultural applications. However, the sizable tire dimensions may lead to increased soil compaction, a concern when operating in sensitive farming environments. A potential advantage is its ability to efficiently handle larger implements, making it suitable for tasks like tilling and planting in expansive fields.
