For those of you that went with fluid filled rears, did you use beat juice or something else and why? I ordered a set of wheel weights when I bought the 2038r but they were and are still on back order. Im thinking of just cancelling the wheel weight order and going fluid filled. My dealer uses beet juice which I think os what rimguard is. Local tire place uses methanol which is about half the price of the rim guard. Dealer wants price per gallon and $104 labor to do both wheels. Tire place is a flat $6/gallon.

Of you have a Rural King nearby, I paid like $2.65 per gallon of beat juice. Some RKs sell beat juice with their new tractors. I bought enough for front and rear tires. I think I paid less than $80 after buying their buckets, bucket lids, and tape. I took it home to do it myself.
You need the tape to hold down the bucket lids.. RK bucket lids suck.

I do have a RK nearby but I dont see beet juice listed on their website. Only thing close was for deer and was 21.99 a gallon. What am I missing here.

Another question. Did any of you fluid fill your fronts?

I initially filled the front tires on my 2720 with Rim Guard and when it was in getting the 3rd SCV installed the dealer called asking who filled the front tires. He "strongly" recommended removing it to avoid any future warranty issues. His exact words were "If you have any drive train issues it will be difficult for us to give you any love". So I took it out.

Thats interesting. Some people use front wheel weights so wonder what the difference is. Dont really understand it being hard kn the drivetrain. Most large tractors have filled fronts.
