I'd rather have chloride than used antifreeze.  That shop saved themselves a disposal bill.

Or foam , won't go flat and no rust. The next time that's the way I'm going.

With foam you lose the "suspension" that the tire provides. Also since the tire is stiff you lose a lot of traction because the tire can't flex and squat to transfer the power to the ground. And tire changes become a nightmare because you have to cut the tire and foam off the rim.

Have a set of foam filled tires for my skid steer and only put them on if I am doing demo work with lots of sharp pointy things. In normal conditions they ride horrible, wear quickly, and have terrible traction.
