I will still 100% stand by the fact, and would put money on...the fact that if static balancing "solved" the problem, something is still fawked. Static balancing, especially on anything over a 15" wheel...is sh*t. A bandaid has been applied, and the actual issue was never solved. EDIT: The only way tape (static) weights are superior, is because you can clump a sh*tload of them in one area. You can only stack so many weights on a lip before it starts throwing things off. But, then again, if you'd hit that point in tape weights...the tire/wheel combo usually needs a closer look. Last edited by freerider15; 08-22-2018 at 05:43 PM. |

I've had them up over 50mph, still drives smooth, no unbalanced tire feeling. The Iroks they replaced...not so much ![]() |

I tossed about 12-16 ounces in each of my 37's on my Scrambler w/ Rock Monster double beadlocks...never had an issue.
Just the cheap airsoft bb's, not that magic overpriced special stuff ![]()

I've got some balancing beads I won in a raffle from H.D. Offroad (NAXJA Event).
They've been sitting on my shelf for like 3 years now ![]() |

Oh yeah, we did plenty.
The usual problems one tends to run into on those cases: 1.) The offset of the wheel makes it so static is really only possible and/or its just enough attempting dynamic ends up with them too close together and it's moot anyway 2.) The wheel weights, even after rigorous cleaning, brushing, etc. don't want to stick to well (especially in the cold). 3.) You get them to stick, they seem rather secure (even after maybe using a heat gun to get the adhesive to really grab), and they get tossed off after X amount of miles due to adhesive failure, mudding, etc. etc. I have stick on weights on the Raceline's on my F-350...but it's a 7.3, leafs, etc. I don't expect it to ride like glass (though it does ride pretty damn nice for the most part).

![]() ![]() the TJ front tires have a wobble to them that's getting worse, and i'm pretty sure it's the ****ty steel wheels bending AGAIN. i'm trying to keep from buying new 8-lug wheels adapters to install the beadlocks on the D30 ... but at some point wheel imbalance is the most annoying and noticeable thing around you! also blows my mind that more places don't have road force balancing. now i gotta find a new shop again :bang: |
