$300 to load rear tires

[RickB]

Use the same amount as you would in the cooling system.

So 50/50.

Which makes it a bunch more expensive than Rim Guard, Citrus based non-corrosive ballast, or CaCl.
Unless of course you get the tires loaded for free.

Rim Guard (-34f) is about .28cents a gallon +/- and can only be installed by a dealer. Splash RV antifreeze (-50) $260 and (-100) $490 for 55 gal. drum.

Many dealers will sell you rimguard to install yourself. I bought my Rimguard and pumped it in myself.

Messicks in PA sells a 55 gal drum of Sprayer Winterizer for $109. I would think this should work in tires if you're not looking for the maximum weight of Rimguard or CaCl.

Or maybe you can find something at local marine or RV store for similar price per gallon.

Why don't stores sell the RV type stuff in concentrate so you could mix your own, or can that stuff not be diluted with water? Seems expensive to package and ship the diluted stuff, even in 55 gallon drums?

I paid $750.00 to have the rear tires filled with Agrim-lim 50 on my LS7010.

Never heard of that stuff but calculates out to 4.57 per gallon installed cost.

I know this price is wrong. At that price I could fill my 7010 for $45.36 (162 gallons). Even at 2.80 per gallons only cost $453.60. That sounds more like it but still only 60% or what Ralph Copp paid for the agrim-lim which I have heard nothing about. I wonder if it is a calcium chloride type or some type of lime based.

Actually a little mis-spelling there. It is Agri-Lim and is only available in Ontario Canada according to their website.
Seems a bit more expensive than the Rimguard but might have more weight. Web says it not corrosive and good to -50C.

I know antifreeze in cars gets weaker as it ages, does this happen when its in a tire, or is the aging due to running through a pump and the heat cycles? I havent filled mine yet, not sure I need it.

Heat cycles in a tire? Compared to what, circulating in an engine?
