    It adds a lot of weight to each tire from what Ive seen. Our garage foreman put it in the tires on our zero turn mowers because he was tired of fixing flats. The added weight was quite a bit and it put a lot of strain on the hydraulic drive motors.

      I agree on the foam filled tires, although there are two types of foam, one is a lot lighter than the other. The other option would be to go down to Tractor Supply and pick up a jug of green slime. I use it in my garden tractor and stuff. You put enough in to keep a decent coating going inside the tires as they are rotating, but you don't "fill" them like you do for foam so you don't have the weight issue.
