I just need to know if any one has used the balance beads in their tires. My little girl needs new shoes again.
 
Ive been using them for 18 months now, no problem at all. still maintains balance as tyre wears, keep reusing them at tyre changes. Just got another set for my ZZR1400 when the tyre gets changed in a few days time. Of course you cant use that green slime for punctures, works for me good luck.
 
U will like them I have used them and they work good
 
I found they were a pain in the ass to get in to valve stem after tire was mounted. Had to keep tapping fill tube.

You have to use something that vibrates.
It tells you that right in the instructions.
I used an electric engraver pencil right on the bottle tube and the beads flowed in smoothly.
You can use anything, electric hand sanders work well too.
 
Beads can be reused but the little bits of rubber trash from the old tire make it very difficult to flow thought the valve stem.
