Default Bead balancing 8 lug wheels.

I'm getting ready to change out the tires on the 2+2 I just bought. I know I can buy a plate to balance the 8 lug wheels with for about $80.00. I've looked into that.

I know a guy who is an owner operator on a semi. He tells me the big trucks use balancing beads in the tires and they work like a charm. He suggested I look into using the beads so I don't have to use any weights on the wheels, and won't have to buy the plate.

Anyone familiar with or used these beads? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
