I'm probably going to get raked over the coals for this also, but have you considered filling your tires with anti-freeze & water?
It is not as heavy, but it is also not nearly as corrosive. I did this on my Ford. I live in the south (Ga.), so I only put 3 gals. of anti-freeze per tire. If you live farther north, I would increase this. As always, animals love anti-freeze and it is deadly to them, so be careful if you drain this back out. BTW, heavy is right! I laid the first tire down in the driveway behind my pickup and filled it. I couldn't lift it, scoot it, drag it, or move it at all! And it was behind my pickup, so I couldn't go anywhere. Walked over & got my 2 neighbors and his Ford 2000, lift pole, and a very large pry bar. Didn't (and won't) make that mistake again!
