Well myself I might dump the wheel weights but i would never remove the cal. we have one 1066 with loaded tires and that tractor belongs to my one buddy and she has loaded tires that are Firestone Field and Road with tread that is around 60-65% , neighbor has a 1066 with one year old Firestone's that are the Altrac's Field and road in 18.4 X38 that tire is a lot better tire then we have on Eugene's BUT no fluid. They pull a 13 and a half foot disk and spin up the hills with it they can not even pull a 3/4 loaded silage wagon up the one hill on the tar and gravel road as they spin out . Now they have added five sets of donuts and they still are spinning in the field with the disk . Ya have to remember that a 1066 has some giddy up and go power and if it like most 1066's that i have been around SHE AIN"T STOCK setting on the pump and you will burn more fuel by slipage then you will with fluid in the tires . Yes i know all of the down sides of fluid in the tires BUT , if you FIX that thorn hole or small leak when ya first notice it and ya keep the tire valve from leaking then you won't have rusted out rims.Plus the fluid makes that tractor more stable . One can never stack enough iron on to equal the fluid. and you will not get the same traction with the iron.

Today's Featured Article - When Push Comes to Shove - by Dave Patterson. When I was a “kid” (still am to a deree) about two I guess, my parents couldn’t find me one day. They were horrified (we lived by the railroad), my mother thought the worst: "He’s been run over by a train, he’s gone forever!" Where did they find me? Perched up on the seat of the tractor. I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par ... [Read Article]
