Again, what makes the beads find the light or heavy spot? Answer, nothing. It just dosnt make sense that it would work. There is no correlation between annout of balance situation and beads!??

I am not saying that they do or do not work well, but the theory of how they work is explained here:

Thanks. Now I know it's Bull dukey! Is this made by the same company that makes the "turbo" air cleaner intake inserts and the deal that gives you better gas millage when you wrap it around your fuel lines?
It seems to defy physics and logic?
Oh well, thanks for the link.

I appreciate the diagram because it gives me a mental image of why it might work. It's not that that convinces me though. What convinces me is that they seemingly have fleet customers and people using them in the big off-road tyres. Strikes me that neither group would bother if it was all gimmick. Had never heard of this before.

I really liked the thing about off roaders telling them how to air down their beaded tyres safely without shooting their eyes out with ceramic bbs. Worth the read just for that.
