You'd be surprised what a difference it can make. Yes, you may have a heavier operator on the tractor, but that weight is distributed over both rears, plus some on the fronts, so doesn't have all that much impact. If you fill the tires you can put 7 plus gallons in so the better part of 60 lbs. on each tire, the weight going directly to the ground under that tire. You can go with 70# wheel weights or filling the tires, or both though personally I think that is a lot of weight for just mowing.
