Andy Calcium chloride is only corosive it you don't look after it. Change the stem centers every 5 years, heck of a lot less money than anti freeze or washer fluid. I've run chloride for years and years no problem. The only folks who have problems are folks who never make repairs, or never service their tractor. They have dozens of other things wrong with their tractors that cost far more than a set of rims every 40 years. I had a guy tell me his valve stems had been leaking for 5 years, he hadn't changed the oil in recent memory either, probably 10 years. I'll bet his engine repairs cost him a lot more money than the leaky stems. There are hundreds of 40 year old tractors out there with with original rims and have had chloride since new. The stem centers have been changed every 5 years. Maintenence my friend, tractors don't service themselves.
