Firestone ag tire site has some good info.
If memory serves a 2WD bias ply tractor should weight 115 to 145 lbs per pto HP. And have 75% of that weight on the rear tires when at rest. ideal working speed for heavy drawn tools is 3 to 5 mph.
I like the idea of weights on the tire if possible. Depends of who ask there is less stress on the axle shaft/bearings?
