VALTRA 3500 TIRES

The Valtra 3500 tractor, equipped with Ag front tires measuring 10.0/75-15.3 and Ag rear tires at 360/70-24, provides specialized traction and stability for orchard applications, minimizing soil compaction while maximizing maneuverability. The narrower front tires improve access in tight spaces, ideal for row crop conditions, whereas the larger rear tires enhance load-carrying capacity and provide better flotation across varied terrains. However, potential challenges include limited power in heavy-duty tasks and the need for careful weight distribution to optimize performance during operation.
