Some companies make pre-measured bags of beads that are meant to be thrown in a tire, bag and all, others need to be weighed and poured loosely into the tire. There’s a certain amount (weight) of beads that must be used on a certain size of tire though, depending on the bead manufacturer. I’ve used them on everything I could from big trucks to trailers to motorcycles (they can’t be used on certain, lower profile tires like my wife’s car) They’re an constantly active way to balance a tire and IMO they work really well. They deffinately have my business now.īalance beads are definitely not “band aids” or “snake oil” or only used by lazy mechanics. But if i trash one on a trail, they will replace it. Cut the bags open, pour them inside the tire.ĭiscount tire said that the balance was easy to accomplish and gave me a lifetime balance, rotation and road hazard. I obviously had the shop stooge that never did them before. ![]() So, for everyone else out there, if you do want to bead balance your tires and a shop does it, dont assume they have a clue. Ill call my mechanic monday and put it on him to decide how he should make it right. So they road force balanced my tires and life is good. Fyi folks, you have to break the bags open and pour them in. Out of the 5 tires, 3 had BAGS of beads in them. I called discount tire today and they got me in right away. The steering wheel shook at speeds between 40 and 65mph. ![]() If what i had was just a vibration, this guy must be an epileptic. Mechanic says its great, a little vibe at 50mph.Well, they closed as i paid and i left. Well i just got new tires, i brought the beads for them, so i wouldnt have to wait for them to order and what not. I have been using balance beads for my tires for years. ![]()
