Calcium in 450 tires

Was wondering how much weight can be lost by pumping calcium out of my rear tires? I have 14.9 x 38 rears, and 1 is about 1 foot from the top and the other 1 is half full of calcium. I weighed it and it weighs 8080 with me on it, with no fenders, no belt pulley, and 1 set of rear weights. Just curious, I have my first pull this weekend with this tractor and am getting calcium pumped out on Friday. Thanks for any and all help.
 
You'll probably drop 1200-1400 lbs depending how not-full the one tires is. With no calcium and drop the one set of wts, you'll be around 6500. Just guess-ti-matin.
 
Thanks. I am hoping to make it into the 6500 pound class. I also have a set of 9 bolt hubs, so I can switch to press steel when I find a set of wheels and tires.
 
I had a set of 15.5 38 tires and rims filled and they weighed on at around 1500 pounds. after they were drained it weighed about 400 pounds. I guess it all depends how much it is filled.
 
Had all the solution pulled out of the UTU Minnie with 15.5's on it when I bought it so I could haul it on my little 7000 lb. trailer, Tire guy said he pulled about 1200 lbs. out.
