Hell there is a store a mile from me that sells them.I found out myself thanks anyway, they seem cool. My washing machine has a similar deal but it has a liquid band on the top of the drum keeps it from rocking when out of balance. My question is will they work with the TPMS sensors? You won't be able to load them thru the valve stem have to do the taped bag method, if I have any issue with it this time I am gonna go with this method right away. Gonna go see how many I need and how much and how you recover them. Might be worth buying a tire install machine one of those mechanical ones, never tried big rims.

 

These are balance beads. Little ceramic beads.

There is also some stuff called Equal that the big rigs use, it's more of a powder.

As far as how do you put them in, I just break the bead and dump them in. Going through the valve stem takes forever.

Recovery? Never bothered, they will go all over the place when you demount a tire. Just make sure to warn the tire guy what is in there.

 

I had a hard time finding someone who could balance the 37s on my 2500 so I ended up buying these: http://www.centramatic.com/Home.aspx They go on the axle before the wheel does. Made a huge difference.

 

I'm interested in this bead thing but they don't have the size of the 20's listed.

 

You need to be really carefull with the centramatics. Since they go between the hub and wheel, you need to make sure that you have enough extra stud length to accomidate their thickness. They also tend to block some airflow from the brakes. They also add weight to rotating mass. Balance beads add 6-8 oz, which is about a wash since you remove the regular wheel weights.

 

They're all of 1/8" think and my Cummins had no issue with the added weight. I agree the Hemi may see issues with the extra pound per wheel.... I never saw an issue with the brakes either but the 2500 are made to slow the weight of the truck and a trailer.

 

How about a possible out-of-balance driveshaft?
