anti freeze for wheel weights
Hidy yall
Someone elsewhere here mentioned anti freeze for wheel weights. Will that rust a rim? Any down side to it? Any idea what a 23x10.5 for a 1650 would weigh per wheel? Do you fill it as full as possible? My land is hilly and I need little more traction on some angles in grass. Thanks yall, Earl

I use RV antifreeze. Some guys use regular antifreeze others use windshield washer fluid. I take the wheel off and break the bead on the valve stem side then just pour it in. I'm getting old and my memory is going, no make gone bad but I think I got about 9 gals in my 23X12X10.5's so 70 lbs. give or take per wheel. Gotta get around to doing my Supers they are way too light in the butt, or I need to drink a lot more beer.

I change the antifreeze in my vehicles, mix what I drained out of the car 50-50 with more water, and use it in the tires.
You get to kill 2 birds with one stone!! Antifreeze has rust inhibitors, so, it protects the steel.

My 10.5 x 23 have 3 gals of windshield washer fluid per. never weighed them but it should add approx 23-24 pounds each.

wheel weights
Well it looks like it is done by several.
I did not know about rust inhibiters in anti freeze. Good! I never thought to break the bead an pour it in. But that is a good idea. I will weigh the tire before I do it. Then I will weigh the tire after and will know the weight I get in them. I need to get to antifreeze sale. I had not thought of windshield wiper fluid. It is probably cheaper. I do not know about rust though. I hope to find some iron weights eventually. But I need traction now. Thanks yall Earl

Filled 2 sets of 23x10.50-12's now with washer fluid. Both held about 7 and half gallons each if i remember right. Tire filled combined weight was right about 95lbs a tire. Only cost about $20 a set. Broke the bead down on one spot only took about an hour for both.

wind shield wiper fluid
If wind shield wiper fluid does not rust rims then I would rather have it.
It is a lot cheaper. Thanks again Earl

WWF
I have 9 gallons of WWF in each 23x10.5 and I'm pretty sure it won't rust my wheels. Each wheel, tire and fluid weighs 90 pounds.

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.
