Tires Fluid Filled Tires

[Henro]

Greg,

Yep, that is the thread I was thinkng about...

Glad I have 16 and not 16.5 inch rims... /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I've had my liquid filled rear tires down as low as 6 PSI (didn't check pressure for a while... /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif ) without problems. That little lip on the inside must really help keep the tire on the rim!

<font color="blue"> make sure you use the better quality windshield solvents because (at least in my climate) the discount brands can freeze solid.

<font color="black"> </font> Thats a good point, however it was brought to my attention at Walmart that they stock two types of WW fluid, Winter and Summer. The Summer variety does not have the anti freeze added. The Winter type is rated down to 20 below, both were the same price $.94. I've decided to fill my tires and noticed that they had both kinds on the shelf, same color fluid/bottle and you had to look close to see the 'winter' printed on the bottle. If yours froze it may have been the Summer type, the sales guy said they only stock the winter version starting in October at that store.

I filled mine with WW fluid

It wasnt a real big deal and I couldnt find a drill pump so I used gravity.

Huge difference using a loader with the tires filled. I can still get the back end up with the 700+ lb in the tires so extra rear weight is nice. Its just that a lot of the time I have a light implement on the 3pt that I need to be there. Loading the tires is the best choice for me because of how I use mine.
