What size 16 inch tire are you running and why not us windshield washer fluid? It is still a little toxic but not nearly as bad as antifreeze. And it should be a lot less$ for the same weight.

In Alabama the dealer recommends 1 Gal for the rear tire on my L2800. It's been OK for five years so far.

I think TSC has a fluid fill fitting to let you fill them with a hose and bleed off air. Gemplers does for sure. ... If those are AGs they should hold about 10G filled to the top of the rim at 12 oclock position. Use a pressure that makes them look right - tread touching down full width. You could probably use water year round where you are. I dont drain mine til well into december.
