Default balancing

dyna beads, equal, etc....but don't be confused, they do not balance the tire and wheel assembly. they do in some cases prevent or reduce resonance, and for that reason a lot of people tend to believe that their tires are balanced. Ask the manufacture to send you a statement that their product will static and dynamicaly balance your tires. What you will get is some marketing hype, but they will not come out and say that it balances the tires. If they do, get a copy to me.

If you are looking for a balancer/sealer, Ride On is the product you are looking for.

http://www.ride-on.com/ Phat Performace, a forum sponsor, has it on their web site.

It's amazing how this useless product has developed into a forum legend. Amusing too.
