Calcium ballast finally got to the rims which are $173 a pop 
, plus remounting and refilling the tires is going to be a kick in the ass. I acually thought the rims would cost more so I guess it could be worse
, plus remounting and refilling the tires is going to be a kick in the ass. I acually thought the rims would cost more so I guess it could be worse Yeah I would do the beet juice but the dealer doesn't mount tires . I have to trailer the tractor to a tire place that only does calcium. So the extra logistics of having to borrow a trailer and added cost of removal of the calcium liquid just doesn't make sense at this point. Just better off to pump out liquid, change rims, and pump back in old ballast. Hell it lasted 16 years so I should get another at least 16 years. I don't want to dump more money into the tractor than I have to at this point.
Surprisingly, sometimes the calcium isn't heavy enough so a something like antifreeze would be definitely under weighted.
