This is your best bet (wheel weights) and better than the other option: Build a bracket with a basket and bolt it to the front axle. Then fill the basket with 4-6 concrete blocks. BTDT
Wheel weights are much better and be sure the wheel is dished in rather than dished out. Steers much easier with weights with the weights close to the spindle rather than dished out away from it (them).

The higher the angle the less penetration but greater the soil disturbance (what you are discing for).
Weights make a huge difference. Also, if you have any hills around, driving up a hill with a light front end can be deadly.
