The rear tires on a tractor are typically R-1 tires, also known as Ag tires, which are designed for dry terrain. The type of rear tire you choose will affect the load power and soil compaction of your tractor. Some other things to consider when choosing tractor tires are Tread depth, Terrain, Construction, Tube vs. tubeless and Load index and speed symbols A number followed by a letter, such as "149A8", indicates the tire's load index and speed symbol. When matching front and rear tractor tires, most tractors are five-step tractors, meaning that the RCI group number of the rear tire is five higher than the front tire. If your tractor is 4WD, you must keep the same front to rear tire ratio.

A front tractor tire is a tire on the smaller front wheels of a tractor that is used for steering and carrying the load of the front axle. The smaller front tires help improve the tractor's maneuverability and steering responsiveness, which is especially useful when planting, harvesting, or navigating around obstacles. One thing to consider when choosing front tractor tires is tread pattern. The tread pattern of a front tractor tire is important because it develops the force needed to steer the tractor. A deep rib pattern is common on 2WD steer tires to help engage the soil or paved surfaces.

Implement tires are made for maximum soil reduction while withstanding heavy loads and extended wear. Farm implement tires spend most of their time in contact with the earth and carrying heavy loads. A good implement tire will deliver excellent traction in the field for lower fuel consumption.
