Well at my age i have seen lots of tractor tires that have had Cal . in them since day one and as long as you don't get a hole in the tube from a thorn , nail , deer antler , that lost piece of some equipment that broke off in the field the rim will not rust out . Now you may have to replace the water valve every now and then but cal is not the devil you all make out to be . NOW IF you are actively engaged in FARMING and just are PLAY FARMING then no you probable don't need nothing but air in your tire . Trying to hang enough iron on the wheels to equal the weight of a loaded tire your going to have iron hanging out a foot and ahalf on each side . If your doing loader work loaded tires PLUS IRON still may not be enough for safe operation . Around here ya need all the weight ya can get for safe operation . My own 806 D has near new Firestone radials and they are loaded to the max with cal. and even setting at over 13500lbs just mowing with the haybine it can get shoved side ways on the turns on some of the fields . I have even been shoved down a hill while planting corn pulling and old 1240 Deer planter making the turn down hill at the head lands with a fully weighted 706 , 750 lbs in the nose loaded 18.4x34's loaded and four sets of donuts bolted to the wheels . You guys eat cal into the ground all you want but for me i will stick with it even if i have to buy and new set of rims every twenty years as that is CHEAP LIFE INSURANCE in my book.Yes loaded tires eqat tires up on road travel and yes we do a bunch of that every years due to fields scattered up to 12 miles away and making the trip to them three or four times a year.
