I'm gonna go the other way here. I absolutely detest liquid in tires. IF you ever have a flat, and you are going to someday, they are a MESS to work with, And usually you have to have a service truck come out and fix them, and even if you never have a flat, that calcium will EAT rims.

As with any equipment above the center of gravity, you have to have common sense, i.e. you don't run the Indy with a bale of hay up in the air, but I feed all winter, lift untold amounts of different things around the farm, and feel very safe with my rig. However, that said, like the vet said, you can't have too much weight on the back of a loader tractor.
