chrome wheel weights with a dab of silicone to keep them in place.

I am gonna try some balancing beads at my next tire change.

Twice now, while on trips, I have lost my wheel weights due to potholes...

Dyna beads all the way. After shelling out cash for the wheels, who wants to disfigure them with weights.

Yep, 'wheel weights' are a thing of the past far as I'm concerned...

Been using the Dyna Beads in all my tires (tube and tubeless) for a couple year now and they work great..

awsome, thanks... I had looked at the dyna beads and wondered if they worked as avertised... will get them on order asap... I also would prefer no weights outside screwing up the looks of the wheels.
