Dynamic wheel balancing. Well at first I thought "SNAKE OIL" but out of despiration I bought them anyway. The Ex had been undrivable at 35-45 and 65-75. Tires had to be rebalanced every 1500 miles. 33x12.5x15 BFG AT KO.
Within a mile I could tell the differance. Now with over 1500 miles on the tires it is incredible. It almost feels as if the tires are "healing" The shake has been reduced to a minimum and now is only between 35-40 and 65-70.
It almost feels like I am driving on my stock 235's. Should have bought these in the first place.

i recommend this product, however you could save your self some green and buy airsoft pellets. anyways i put these beads in my tires, 8oz for each 33" tire i have. I was skeptical at first. i started drivi ng and the wheels were very balanced and i was pleased with the reults. very smooth around town. on the highway, between 65-70 mph there is a heavy vibration but go up to 72 its gone. Overall im pleased and from now on ill be using beads instead of static wiehgts.
