Driving wheel operation is characterized by force interactions with the ground, manifested in the form of vibrations. Signals generated by driving wheels can be analyzed in the frequency spectrum of tractor drawbar pull. The paper presents the analysis of a drawbar pull signal generated by a tractor equipped with two types of special driving wheels and standard tires. Beside the evaluation of special driving wheels’ properties according to drawbar power, the frequency spectra of measured signals were analyzed using a fast Fourier transformation. The model spectrum intervals for the standard tires, spike tires, and blade wheels were calculated according to the number of rubber lugs, blades, or spikes and compared with the experimental results. The results showed that the specific frequencies typical for blades and spikes were identified in model spectrum intervals. In the case of standard tires, the spectrum components typical for rubber lugs of the tire tread pattern were not identified. The highest amplitude of the typical frequency component was detected in the case of blades wheels, which showed the highest difference in drawbar power in comparison with the standard tires. Smaller dimensions of spikes resulted in lower amplitude and lower difference in drawbar power in comparison with the standard tires.
