If you use just water at 75% fill you'll use approx. 110 gallons of water and add a weight of 920 lbs.. If you use a 2lbs. Calcium Chloride per gallon of water mix you'll use 100 gallons of water and 200 lbs of Calcium Chloride and add a weight of 1029 lbs.. Freeze protection +13 degrees (slush). If you use a 3.5 lb. Calcium Chloride per gallon of water mix you'll use 94 gallons of water and 328 lbs. of Calcium Chloride and add a wieght of 1108 lbs.. Freeze protection to -12 degrees (slush). If you use a 5 lb. Calcium Chloride per gallon of water mix you'll use 89 gallons of water and 445 lbs. of Calcium Chloride and add a weight of 1184 lbs.. Freeze protection to -53 degrees (slush). This is per tire data. If you have tubeless tires you should fill to 90% and all values would increase by 20%. Had to convert this from imperial gallons so double check. Should be close though. Dan
