Anti-freeze as balancer

Anyone know any truth that adding anti-freeze to tires help keep it balanced and ensures even wear?

My father owns a trucking company and swears by it...after replacing tires constantly due to uneven wear, he adds antifreeze now and says he gets much better wear from his tires...opinions?

I'd stay away from it for a street car.

I guess it would be like a watered down version of the green slime stuff, where it can actually help to balance the setup. But think water in the tires..... gonna take a bit to get it spinning? Just doesn't sound right.
