Try the site below, it gives the tire ballast for most tire sizes. Good info to keep on hand. It could be the tires are loaded with calcium chloride and water. If you drain it out make sure you wash everything very good as the calcium will eat metal pretty good. Personally I would leave the solution in the tires for the traction it affords you, but to each his own. I just put new tires and tubes on my JD and had them filled. The 18.4-30 tires hold over 742 lbs.each without the cal chl. I think there is another 200# with the calcium in. It really makes a difference when pulling something heavy. The calcium chloride keeps the water from freezing if you are in a climate that gets cold you can't run the straight water.
