I was planning on going with airsoft pellets in my 40's. WTF are dynabeads?

carton of bbs (2000?) in each tire. Golf balls sometimes don't balance out correctly and you have to slam on the brakes to make them redistribute. They do make funny noises though

the cool thing about dynabeads is that you can add them after the tire is mounted through the valvestem.

I hear that they can be a super ***** to put in though. Maybe they have improved their installation hardware?

EDIT: I may be thinking of another product, but I am pretty sure dynabeads is it. Do you have to modify the valvestem hole in the rims for this to work?

I remember reading that too. Don't know if it was with the dynabeads or something similar.

I got discount to balance my 37s after I mounted them on the beadlocks. Used the stick-on weights but they gave up after they started adding the 3rd layer :D They did balance out well enough though since I can go 70 without any vibrations. I went to the discount back home where the owner is a member of the offroad club down there and they always work on everyone's rigs there no matter what size tire. I don't know if the one here would touch a 40 though.

I dropped 2500 airsoft pellets into my tires, but I have no idea if it works or not, since I have never had it up to highway speeds and I think the tires being out of balance would be the last thing I would notice
