Default Dyna Beads?

Or any other brand. Anybody ever used them? From what Ive read your supposed to get a smoother ride and longer millage on your tire. Like riding a freshly balanced tire every time you get on. Thats what the ad says anyway. This is probably another to good to be true thing.

Dyna Beads are good stuff. The only pain is getting them into the tire.

Is this instead of balancing, or in addition to?

Instead of using weights. Apparently the beads do the balancing. See here: www.innovativebalancing.com. Never tried them so no recommendation.

Work like a hose. The indy who installed my 200 on the solid wheel didn't even ask, just put them in. They look better (nothing visible) and work great.
And as Kikenderen said, INSTEAD of external weights. Don't do both.

+1 about trying to get them into the tire. A real pain but worth it. Smooth ride without any stick-on weights showing.
