What would happen if you put this new tire repair/inflate kit from Slime into a tire that contains 400 pounds of calcium cloride and water?

You may assume that the tire in question is an old tractor tire on a rather large International Harester Farmall tractor.

Oh, did I tell you my brother-in-law's into old International H's and John Deers?

Why does it matter what happens between the tire repair substance and whatever crud the tire is filled with? For that matter why is a tractor tire filled with calcium cloride and water? How the hell do you even know its calcium cloride?

1. You don't want a tire to explode due to a chemical reaction.

2. It's not quite filled, but it's used to make the tire heavier and dig in better.

3. Bro-in-law's father told me as I was talking to him filling up the deflated tire with air. Aparently, it was common to use CaCl and water. Now they use another substance.
