Dave: Liquid filled tires probably give more benefit on a loader tractor than any other situation, with tractors hauling heavy loads on hard roads a close second.
Calcium chloride is your best option, yes it requires a bit of maintinence, mere pennies when you consider the benefit. There are a few rules with calcium chloride in tires. Never leave small leaks, fix them immediately. Fix flats immediately, and wash the rim thouroughly. About every 5-7 years change the center housing of the valve stem. It is the only metal making contact with the calcium chloride. Fix it before it leaks. Just jack the tractor with valve stem at top, remove the stem and replace it with a new one. You will need air on hand, to replace lost air.
I've seen lots of rims last 40-50 years, tires filled with chloride the whole time. One other thing, on a loader your still going to miss your counter weight.
