Hugh Mackay is right. Forget the 25% or 75% idea on filling the tires with fluid. If you put fluid in the rear wheels, fill the tire up with fluid so that the fluid level is roughly 1 inch lower than the top of rim when tire is completely inflated. I wouldn't advise doing it any other way. If more fluid than that, the air will circulate with the rotation of wheel at higher speeds. If less than that, the fluid itself will begin to travel with the wheel being flung over the rim (kind of like centripical force in the water in a bucket experiement). Filling to the level I have suggested will keep the fluid and air seperated and will keep the air at the top of tire at any speed.
