Question about Rim Guard

TJH72 · May 11, 2013

I have a 1967 Farmall 706 Diesel. I am thinking about adding some weight to it to help it pull better. I was reading about rim guard (Beet juice) and it sounded pretty good. I know it is a little expense than others. Would this additional weight help the 706 pull a field cultivator and disk better than the air filled tires? Any opinions are appreciated.

It's so easy to find farmall wheel weights that I think you'll be way happier with them.

They never get lost if you puncture a tire (fluid does)
They retain their value (used fluid is worth little to nothing)
You wont have to pay to have them pumped out in order to repair the tire (fluid requires pumping)
They wont reduce the tractive efficiency of your tire (fluid will)
They will not deminish your ride quality (fluid will)

Its your cash but fluid doesnt make sense in this situation where weights are easily procured for a reasonable fee.
