- 1994 sport
picked up a 94 sport awhile back and joined this great site and figured i'd better post,its in the shop getting a new clutch but before that i needed tires bad so found a like new set of 235's and mounted them at my brothers shop,read this on the web so figured i'd try it, http://aircooledtech.com/tools-on-the-cheap/balancing_beads/ ,went to walmart and they were out of them so went to the -bay and ordered some airsoft BB's,got them and did the tire swap,made sure the back was sealed good and poured in the BB's,they weighed 3 5/8 grams so with package they were close to 3 1/2 grams,buttoned them up and mounted to the 94 and took it for a roadtrip, they worked fine,no wobble at 60 like i had before w/old tires,took it up to 75 and smooth running,i'm sold on them and they do work,no more weights eating the finish on the alumn rims,try it & save a few bucks,
