adding weight for more traction?

That's great to hear and thanks for the update!
Did you fill the steer tires also and did you have to glue the tires to the rims after filling? I need to do the same thing to my dump truck. Front tires are too soft with a heavy load to steer and the drives squat down way too much.

No I did not fill the steer tires yet, but do plan to when I figure out awd situation. As for gluing tires on I have not. I'm using my king to pull a wagon with my son in along with a cooler etc so no weight is put on the drive tires. For you I'd suggest gluing seeing as you will have weight directly above the tires. I can tell you the only down side is the noise the bbs make while in motion. But if you can fill the tire to where the bbs do not have room to roll around its not a big deal. I've got mi e packed and noise is to a minimum.

When driving in dirt with stock rims, they will start to spin inside the tire if not glued eventually.
