Tires reverse wheels?

you air it to the same pressure you normally run it.. that air will be in the top 20-30% of the tire...

if you ran solid water with no air you'd blow the tire or tube first time you hit a obstacle that wanted to deform the tire good bit under load... cuz water don't like to compress!

Exact concept in the heating and cooling in hydronic system achieved by expansion tank acting as shock absorber.

the best thing to use is windshield washer fluid, the blue type it made of methanol and will be good to -20 F if you go to tractor supply you can buy a garden hose nozzle for 5 dollars and get a cheap fuel pump for about 25 dollars at harbor freight and you can put that right in the tire i put valve stem at top and filled until it came out, then put 7 psi of air in and your done. I bought the WW fluid from Advanced auto 110 gallon for under 100 dollars. They cut me a deal since I bought so much of it. I took my tractor over on my trailer and picked up the pallet and took it home and put it in by taking all the caps off of the bottle one row at a time. Then stuck the hose down in there it took about 2 seconds to do each gallon. about twenty minutes i was done.

25$ fuel pump? why???? a 2$ drill pump from harbor freight will more than work. I've done many that way. save the other 23$ for goodies..

I have been running my little ‘87 Ford 1120 with reversed wheels for 15 years, since I bought it. The only problem being the valve stems are on the inside of the wheels. Am now replacing the worn out tires with tubeless, 6-12s and 9.5-16s. In doing so, am adding a second pop in valve stem to the other side of the one piece steel rims. Should also make it easier to add fluid to the rears.

make sure you go with a non corosive ballast if you are going tubeless... ie.. winter ww fluid, anti freeze or beet juice..

no salt water or plain water...

Here's an example of what you can expect before and after reversing (or swapping side to side) rear tires. This is mostly directed for folks who want to install tire chains, but also those who want a bit more spacing for stability. This is applicable to turfs, but you should see similar results with R-4 tires).
The first pic is of my 4400 (actually on the dealer's lot right after I bought it) with those rear turfs in factory stock. Not much clearance for chains, eh?
The second and third pictures are what you can expect after reversing those rear tires (this is, of course, on a Deere 4400. You'll get the same results on 4200, 4210, 4300, 4310 and 4410 tractors...other Deere models and other brands may have different results).

Well, now I'm ready for that snow storm...
