If you put fluid in get new tubes with new valve stems. Calcium mixed with water has been used for eons. The amount of rims that have been rusted away are small compared to the number of rims with calcium in them. If the people that had them would have repaired them when they first saw them leak, they wouldn't have wrecked the rims. The only way the calcium can corrode the rims is if it leaks. Calcium is used because it offers freeze protection and is much heavier than just plain water or some kind of antifreeze. You want extra counter weight with a loader, no matter how heavy the tractor is. A full bucket on a strong loader takes a lot of weight of the back tires. Hope this helps. Dave
