Liquid Ballast in Rear Tires
1. Water and calcium chloride solution provides safe economical
ballast. Used properly, it will not damage tires, tubes or rims.
2. The addition of calcium chloride is recommended to prevent the
water from freezing.
3. Use of this method of weighting the wheels has the full approval
of the tire companies.
• Do not fill tires with water or solution more than 75 % of full
capacity (to the level of valve stem at 12 o'clock position).
• To avoid damage of transmission, do not use rear wheel
weights and liquid ballast at the same time.
