Why NOT to put Calcium Chloride in your tires
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT:
This is why you should never, ever, ever, EVER put Calcium Chloride in a tubeless tire.  I personally wouldn't be putting it in a tubed tire, either...

Never saw one THAT bad before. But I never saw a tubeless tire with it in. There was a bio-degradable substatute that a tire dealer told me about around 15 years ago. Said you could put it in a tubeless tire and it would not hurt the rim or tire. He said it was around the same weight as CC but a lot safer.

Dawn dish soap! Won't freeze. Won't rust.
I know ALL of you will argue with me, I'm a nutter. Do as you will. 8oz to one wheel/tire with water. Scott

For some reason I can't see the pic, but I've seen a lot of calcium chloride results. I use RimGard in all my tractors. It's beet juice....basically. It's heavy too - adds 502# to one 14.9 x 24 R1. I can also tell you it doesn't taste too good, especially after being in a tractor tire for a few years.....

Go to TS and in the tire section you'll find a hose to stem adapter to about $12 IIRR, works great. And the Dawn, just lay wheel/tire on it's back and open the spout on the Dawn and let it run in the stem, once streaming it'll go right in.
Scott PS. as Matt warns about breakage, soap is harmless. Further- soap changes the ph level of water, I'm not a chemist so don't ask me how but it inhibits rust. Also I tested this last winter and we have several days in a row of 9 degree cold and tires did not freeze.

papaglide.
Here is the setup i use. Works pretty well.  I fill the bucket with windshield washer fluid (or what ever you are going to use) Then my pickup hose to the pump. From the pump to the tire, going through the adapter.  Bought this drill powered fluid pump at the hardware store. Wasnt sure how long it would last, but it has filled 8 23x10.5-12 tires so far. It was less than $20.00  This is the adapter i use. It hooks to the end of the garden hose from the pump and hooks to the valve stem of the tire. You have to stop the pump every so often and let the pressure out . There is a little button valve on the side of the adapter.

I use "Rimguard" also. The stuff weighs 11lbs per gallon. It's toally biodegradable and even aproved as animal feed. I haven't really checked around to compare prices, but I paid $3.85 per gallon the last time I had tires filled. Here's the link: http://www.rimguard.biz/

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.
MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
