(*) - The alpha numeric system is the older method for tire sizing (see right chart above). Back then, tires didn't get much bigger than MV85, which corresponds to a 150mm width. Newer tires larger than 150mm will only carry the metric sizing designation.
- The beads when added to the inside of the tire will distribute themselves throughout the tire during motion to counter act the heavy spots.
Benefits
- Never balance your tires again - save yourself $$$
- Readily disperse throughout tire during motion for consistent balance
- Static-free and roll freely
- eco-friendly
- Reusable, super hard, durable, and eco-friendly
- Install is a snap — just pour them into the tire during mounting
- Won't rust, melt, clump, or break.
- Can be used with nitrogen filled tires
Why not use glass beads instead?
- Glass is a much softer material - it will break down and you'll have glass powder in your tires. Powder becomes susceptible to moisture clumping as well as a potential hazard to your health when you change your tires.
- Our beads are denser than glass - which means you need less of them inside the tire, this helps reduce tire wobbling due to excessive media especially for smaller tires.
Installation instructions
- Just pour them in during mounting - its that easy!
- Alternatively, follow the photos above to cut the two bags. Apply the 1 oz bag to the front tire using the applicator tube, similarly apply the 2 oz tube to the back tire. Make sure to screw out the core from the stem while you are pouring in the beads.
- As you are pouring the beads into the applicator keep tapping the stem, this will help the beads go down easily. Some folks even use an air compressor to blow the beads in.
- Have them installed at the shop or there are many youtube videos on how to add these ( ex. through the stem or even using a paper funnel).
- You can't use these with a liquid sealer though, as they will not be able travel freely inside the tire.
Whats included
- 1 oz and 2 oz bag, valve core removal tool, and an applicator tube (fits over the the stem). Please note, you need to provide your own scissors.
Tire compatibility
Good rule of thumb is to figure 1 ounce per 10-12 lbs of tire weight.
