You may want to ballast the front tires as well. It will help keep the front end down when you have weight on the hitch and will improve stability on side hills.
Calcium chloride has pretty much fallen out of favor. Rimguard (sugar beet juice) has largely replaced it, although it's quite expensive and overkill for down south. My tires are filled with windshield washer fluid; the dealer I bought them from doesn't like Rimguard. I don't think I'd use automotive (etylene glycol) antifreeze, just because of its toxicity should you spring a leak, not to mention it's expensive. Consider using RV antifreeze, which you can usually buy at Wally World or HD for less than 3 bucks a gallon.
Once you've filled the tires, add air to bring them to their normal pressure (e.g. 23 psi). Of course it will take a lot less air than before, and the pressure will be more sensitive to temperature changes.
