anyone use daisy copper bb's to balance tires? I found people on here that use dynabeads, but i have seen on other sites people using to bb's. I was wondering if they would corrode and get stuck together? I have trxus m/t's and I am having a heck of a time balancing them.

 

i feel your pain on the trxus mt's but if you have a lifetime balancing plan, i would just use it. when i was running them on my TJ, i would have to take my jeep back in 2-3 times before they got it right. also, try having them use tape on weights as i seemed to have better luck with them.

regarding BB's, i have heard of many people using them but like you, i would fear them corroding inside and potentially making things worse.

 

i have heared of people using antifreeze in there four wheelers.

 

run those big tires for several hundred miles before trying to balance them . They will balance once the internal construction of the tire has ''set'' by being spun......

 

i have had them on over 1000 miles. just had them balanced last week and they seem to be a bit better but not great. I can deal with the rough ride and steering wheel wobble i just dont want them to wear quickly because they are out of balance. I already need to get me toe changed because i am seeing signs they are probably toed in too much. I never took it to an alignment shop to have it properly adjusted. i thought i could do it the DIY way and get it good enough. Guess i was wrong. Need to go this week before the damage get irreversable.

 

I used Airsoft BB's and I couldn't be happier. I have 9 oz in each tire. The only time I can tell they are in the at speeds under 5 mph and when I hit the 5 mph mark while slowing down. It sounds like a short .5 second clip of a rain stick. I can only hear it with the doors off. I was having a terible time getting them balanced and now no wobble at all to 80 mph. The best part is I only spent $20 on the BB's!
