They make a fitting that goes on a water hose and connects to the valve stem. You have to take out the valve core to fill it up.
if you live in a freeze prone area straight water is not recommended
I know farmers who fill their tractor tires with water to gain weight and traction. -Seems pretty silly to do that to a road tire though.
No But It can be done and will increase traction
Any fluid in tractor tires adds weight to the tire/tractor, thereby adding better traction. An Anti-freeze type fluid should be used instead of water in cold climates where outside air temps drop below freezing.
Calcium chloride was added to the water used for liquid ballast in tractor tires because it prevents the water from freezing.
A tractor weight is either put on the wheels as wheel weights or as suitcase weights in the front of the tractor. they add stability and traction.
Any tire made for Tractors will work fine with the John Deere Tractor. Just be aware of the size of your tractor so you can be aware of what size tires you will need to put on the tractor itself.
This helps with the traction of the tires to the road. It helps the tires not slip or slide on the ice.

When it rains or snows, you will have NO traction.
Some of the different types of tractor tires manufactured in the United States are Goodyear and Kumho. Kumho makes a great tire for a tractor and they seem to last forever. I put Kumho tires on my tractor over Goodyear because they were a little cheaper than the Goodyear tires but they have for the most part outrun the Goodyear tires.
No. You have to fill them up with air sometimes Most rider tires are tubeless from factory some people put tubes in them because they get rusty rims that won't hold air ,or just get week . Some bigger lawn tractors have tubes in them because they are loaded (they put calcium in them to add wait to give the tractor better traction).
Uhh..because 2 is the best number of tires for balance and traction and where would you put the 3rd tire?
