If the tire is overfilled they can will blow after sititng in the hot sun. Seen it on my uncles 520 with the corn scuffler mounted on it at the time. Calcuim killed the grass and started a rust problem on just about everything on that tractor. Corrosion will occur as long as there is free oxygen inside the tire. Fluid above or below the rim makes no difference. Put a tube in the tire and save yourself the slow leaks and rim rusting. A little o2 diffuses it's way through the tire. Over the years along with other chemical reactions using little or no o2 will pin hole a rim. Go with dry mid to premium quality radials, save fuel and increase the crop yeilds.
