I WOULD THINK TWICE BEFORE FILLING MY TRACTOR TIRES WITH ANTI FREEZE DEPENDING ON WHERE YOU ARE YOUR PROBABLY GOING TO WANT TO USE A 50/50 MIXTURE AND IF IT IS LEAGAL WHERE YOU ARE ITS NOT COST EFFECTIVE A CHEAPER WAY IS CALCIUM(SALT WATER) IT IS COMMONLY USED IN THE NORTH EAST AND IT ADDS SIGNIFAGANT WIEGHT TO ANY MACHINE W/ 24IN. REAR TIRES
THERE ARE OTHER FACTORS LIKE WHAETHER OR NOT YOU ALREADY HAVE TUBES BECAUSE THOUGH THEY ARE NOT NEEDED YOU WILL PROBABLY WANT THEM FOR THE SAKE OF YOUR RIMS AND EVERY TIME YOU GET A FLAT YOU WILL HAVE BALLEST PUMPED OUT SO TIER CAN BE REPAIRED THEN PUMPED BACK IN
I HAVE FOUND THE EASYEST WAY TO ADD BALLEST IS A 55 GALLON DRUM FULL OF CONCRETE WITH THREADED ROD RUNNING THROUGHT IT THAT MOUNTS TO YOUR THREE POINT HITCH
