[QUOTE="Barry 07 FJR1300AE, post: 884813, member: 20093"] First off, this is a work in progress post as I am about to give this a shot and I will post results. I have been looking into Dyna Beads for the fact that I can get my tires swapped by a local "Auto Tire" shop "cheap", however they cant balance of course. After researching the Dyno Beads I saw a post that someone said use Airsoft Pellets (Walmart). They posted nothing else, so I went on a search and found it is VERY common around the 4x4 community to balance big tires this way. Anyway I found a thread on the advrider forum that gave instructions. Basicly add the same amount as the Dyna Beads. I have 6K on my PR2's and they seem to be balanced and wearing fine. I plan to mark the wheels and remove the weights. Break down the tires and pour in 1oz front and 2oz rear(as per dyna bead inst). Then go ride. If balance seems right then great. Then to TEST the science I am going to install the wheel weights opposite where they were and ride. Ill post the results. Please post your experiances.
