Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Daniel306 - 23-10-2014 http://www.dynabeads.co.uk/index.php Anyone used these? I like the idea but am not convinced yet, might give them a try on the Hilux RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - eskimogod - 23-10-2014 interesting.. could be tempted to try it out on the bike not been able to get the rear wheel balanced right! RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Janne L - 26-10-2014 Car wheels should be balanced on both sides, thats why you often have balancing weights on both inner and outer sides of the rim, i cant see how these would solve that. /Sceptic RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Daniel306 - 26-10-2014 I never get mine balanced on both sides, I ask to get them on the inside only, other wise when you use Gti brakes with 15" wheels they catch on the calliper RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Poodle - 01-11-2014 Physics says no. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Niall - 01-11-2014 Looks like another bollocks gimmick which will last 5 minutes. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Daniel306 - 01-11-2014 They do work in 4x4's that have too big tyres to fit on the ballancer. Loads on YouTube have used them with success RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - C2K - 02-11-2014 No. Just no. Loads on eBay have used electric superchargers with success BTW.. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Dum-Dum - 02-11-2014 Gotta be a gimmick RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Eeyore - 02-11-2014 mmmmm cant see it being accurate at all... RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Jiffy - 03-11-2014 More info here: http://www.dynabeads.co.uk/pdf/LowProfileTires.pdf If you have lower profile than 65 then you still need normal balancing as well. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Piggy - 04-11-2014 Im no physics buff by any means but in my mad soup of a brain if a wheel/tyre has a heavy area and a light area, the forces of the wheel spinning will cause the heavy area to become a greater pulling force (if you stood spinning two objects on a piece of rope, one heavier than the other, you feel a greater pull from the heavy object) and thus pull all the beads into the heavy area rather than the lighter part which needs the weight. Or am I talking rubbish as usual?! RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Toms306 - 04-11-2014 Must admit, I've been trying to work this out as well. There must be something in it, but I'm struggling to see how it would work as well. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Norledge - 18-11-2014 I've used these in the past on the Defender 'Bigfoot' Icelandic Trucks - Even with the most awesome balancer money could buy we couldn't get it perfect. So we tired these. They removed a SMALL amount of balance issue, but frankly not enough to warrant the cost. As for normal road tyres? No chance. RE: Dynabeads - Wheel balancing - Daniel306 - 18-11-2014 are they 37's? If the beads are free, how would you rate them then? the Real beads are expensive Iv got a pack of 3mm stainless bearings i am going to test
