Hi,
I just purchased a '50 8N with a 6 foot blade and a front end loader. I need to load the tires for pulling snow around and when I use the bucket. I don't want to use chloride (unless I have to)because of the wheels rusting. What should I use and whats the procedure for loading the tires? I'd appreciate any help.

i have the calcium chloride in mine... and yes it will eat them up.
al's suggestion for the antifreeze is good.
one thing i would not recommend, based on a friend's experience is tyr fill or similar. i think it is a liquid that hardens and basically turns your tires into solid tires. while good for flats/weight, the guy i know was carrying a heavy load in his loader, drove up onto a concrete driveway, and trashed a rim and axle due to the tires no longer cushioning the impact.

good luck

You can use water and antifreeze. You can buy an adapter to go from a garden hose to the the valve stem and a drill operated pump to fill the tires with. Remove the valve stem to fill. Like pouring sand out of a boot....
