I don't think the the washer fluid would be a very good idea, I am not sure at what point is freezes, but it is somewhere above zero. I talked to a local farm tire store here, they said you did not need tubes, and they recommended alcohol for the fluid, no problems with rust issues. They do calcium also, but recommend tubes for using it, it can lead to rust issues.
