Pay a little more the first time & be Done with the job.

I put fluid in all 4 of my tires for traction on hills & a 1400lb 110" Rear Finishing Mower.

I've got my rear 44x18-20 Turf Tire back at the tire store for the THIRD TIME.

Cheesy THIN imported tubes splits wide open FIRST DAY of use & looses $50 of antifreeze EACH TIME.

Just a FYI :D

Prolly shouldn't put anti-freeze in tires. Windshield washer fluid is better and considerably cheaper. I use it with no inner tubes.

Where do you buy USA made innertubes? Can't say that I have seen them.

Most all Tractors with FEL's need fluid in rears :D

I WOULDN'T want water on my steel rims - running tubeless.

Bridgestone / Firestone tubes are USA natural rubber - thick & heavy unlike Korea & China THIN JUNK.

I run Rimguard in my rears tubeless.

The last set of Firestone tubes I bought for my fronts were thick and heavy but they were made in Korea. The Taiwan and China stuff is junk.

My rear was Korea too & it was thin as a a small Lawnmower tube :-((

It split WIDE OPEN with 8psi & half full of water / antifreeze mix.

Tell me more about this Rimguard you speak of :
