Alot of tire shops that service larger truck (dumptrucks, transports, tractors, etc.) will have a pile of used or fucked up tires that are just sitting around or waiting to be tossed at the end of the month. You could try and pick one of those up cheap, and the starting weight of a truck tire is probably around 40-50lbs.
I had an old truck tire and I cut a circular piece of plywood that was just a bit bigger than the size of the rim, I popped the plywood inside and it made a base on the inside of the tire. Then I just put an old paint can filled with rocks in it. Tires have lots of room inside and with the plywood in there you dont have to worry about keeping it attached to the tire.
It's especially good for the winter because you don't have to worry about the plywood digging into the snow and jamming (or breaking), the tire doesn't dig in (it sinks a bit) and it still provides as much or more resistance than pulling on asphalt or gravel.
