Yes, would agree that most "real" farmers will use CC. A few because it weighs more, most because it is cheaper. We had CC in two Ford tractors and eventually ruined a rim on each one. Did take 35 years or so. Also agree when you discover a leak, the tire should be removed and the problem fixed. Unfortunately at least on our farm, there were often many other alligators in the swamp that more urgently needed attention. Most of the tractors that I have purchased were filled with CC. Several both front and rear. One of the first projects was always to remove that stuff, clean up the rims and install new tubes. I purchased wheel weights as necessary to meet my drawbar pull requirements. If the maximum drawbar pull/weight is necessary, I would use something rather than CC; e.g., washer fluid, and then add wheel weights as is required.
