PC800 Darksider-That Car Tire Guy
Written by israel_96gtp on 6/25/2009 at 12:29 am

I have run Dynabeads in my dually, rode like it was on glass, perfect
balancing every time. I run large chunk of airsoft plastic bb's in each of
my 36" Super Swamper (bias) SX's on the Jeep and they do a good job of
keeping the beats fairly well balanced. I am about to split a bottle of
bb's between the tires on my car trailer this weekend.

Suffice it to say, for me, they work.

For the guys going on about the beads collecting in the out-of-round areas
in the tire, if the tire is out of round, no amount of balancing will make
it run true. The manufacturing processes are much better these days and the
tolerances are such that the out-of-round tire is a rare exception.

Just like the car tire, don't knock it unless you have tried it.
