Unloading tires

[Riversidejr]

When using a water adaptor to unload tires do they actually fully empty?

A tubed tire using a pump or siphon will get most of the fluid out if the tire is allowed to squash done some. A tubeless tire will retain more fluid then a tubed one. There will usually be a couple to several gallons left depending on your tire size.

It’s a small Kubota bx1500 so tires are not very big. Is there a way to get all the fluid out

yes demount the tire and drain it.

Pump or siphon all that you can out, and I'm going to assume tubeless so when it quits pumping or siphoning break the bead and pump out the remaining bit.

With those small tires you could also pump out what you can then unbolt the rims from the tractor and tip them so valve stem is low point to pump out vast majority of fluid.

When I emptied ballast from a used tractor I bought, I just put the valve stem low and parked the tractor on a slight sideways pitch. Got 95% of it out without breaking the bead, but these were 520/38’s.
I remember pushing on the flattened tire and the fluid squirting out the stem until no more would come out.

Here is what I did.

17.5LR24 Tires w/ R1 Tread

I had Titan 17.5L24 R4 tires on my New Holland TC45DA and they provided terrible traction, so I set out to find a R1 type tire. I only found one 17.5LR24 / 460/70LR24 tire with a R1 tread pattern the BKT RT 747. https://www.bkt-tires.com/ww/us/rt-747-agro-industrial The RT 747 is a radial and...

I have tried draining fluid out of 2 tires I purchased used and very slow process using a hose on the valve stem . Is there a faster way without buying a pump?
