Counteract tire balancing.

I' m still in process of working with them. The kit I bought came with valve stem sore that had filtter to prevent beads from coming out along with chrome valve stem cap to shows beads are in there.

I am skeptical. At low to medium rotation speeds they'd all stay in th bottom of the tire and would UNbalance the tire. Another thought is that tire manufacturers may or may not design their tires to accommodate the friction these beads would have on the inside of the tire. Tire manufacturers may also void warranties due to their use.

There are some times when they do get a slight vibration but it's only for a moment and they reset and it's smooth as butter.

There is no friction as the beads ride around, held by centrifugal force. I have run these, in motorcycle tires, up to 185mph and to the life of the tire with no effects. I use them in all of my trailers, bikes, quads & of course in the Raptor. You can even collect them & re use when changing your tire. No warranty issues either. As for the valve stem issue, either blow a little air in before checking pressure or check with the stem facing down.

I couldn't imagine seeing tire shop voiding warranty for a product they sell. When i put my wheels on the TPMS sensors now stick straight up rather then laying flush on wheel. You would think have hundreds of balls rolling around would break a sensor. Almost thousand miles later I still haven't broke a sensor and doubt they wheel. Having your tires always balanced enev after you get out of the mid is big advantage. I think this way of tire balancing is still partly in the dark is the cost.

Ok what would be the difference in this and say airsoft bbs that you can buy 20,000 for 10 bucks or whatever it is.

They are not ceramic, a lot larger & could take ya a while to shove'em through the valve stem.
