Does anyone know the ratio of antifreeze to water for filling tires for corrosion protection? I'm not concerned about freezing where I live.

I may have some misconceptions that will be straightened out. I think that if there's any water in the coolant at all then corrosion protection is achieved by an additive to glycol coolants, and the additive has to be replenished periodically. If that's true and there is no potential for freezing then maybe using just the additive would be cheaper and it wouldn't have the disposal problem of glycol coolants. Plain water wouldn't weigh as much though. ....
