LaMar, I just filled both of my rear tires(ford 3000). My suggestion would be to forget the calcium based mixture and use antifreeze and water. Most garages are looking for a way to get rid of old antifreeze that has been flushed out of raditors without having to "dispose" of it properly, so you can probably get it for free. Plus the calcium mixture is very corosive and a whole heck of a lot harder to mix properly. I just replaced a rim that was ate out around the valve nozzle because of this. Another option(more expensive), would be to just buy wheel weights. I'm not for sure on the cost, but I do know I'm way to cheap to spend the money on them. Hope this helps. Casey
