I have rimguard in my L3400, and it works great. I had the cal in an IH, it rotted the rim pretty bad.

Well, I called my dealer back and he said it was rimguard. That is kinda a let down that maybe my tractor isn't as sweet as I thought. He said he just likes to call it molasses because that is what it is like to him. I asked him how much to fill my 13.6x28 tires on the AC WD - $3.25 per gallon and he said I could put in as much or as little as I wanted - is there a reason not to put in the full 86 gallons besides cost? It would seem to me that the more weight the better. I am wanting to use the tractor to pull a 3 bottom plow, a 9 ft disk, a 2 row planter and a hay wagon. There may be times I want to trailer it to a show, but I don't have a trailer yet, so I would get one capable of hauling it and any attachments I may want to take.

Your tires dont take 86 gallons to fill, my 16.9x28 tires only take 69 gallons to fill. There is a chart on the rimguard website that tells how many gallons you will need.

here you go
13.6-28 43.0 460.1

43 gallons each and 460.1 lbs each
(Based on 75% Fill Level/Valve Stem at 12:00)
according to the rimguard chart.
