I would definitely agree with this statement. My Kubota tires are filled just to the top of the rim. It is very stable. I have an inclinometer for my wife's comfort. I peg it so far I can't see the ball with little fear of tipping while using the MMM. Adding fluid seems to move the center of gravity toward the rear of the tractor as well as lowering it. If I get crossed up in a ditch it's always a front tire that is airborne rather than a rear.
Whatever method of adding rear wheel weight you use, you will be pleasantly rewarded with the difference in performance of your tractor.
