Am thinking about purchasing a set of Centramatics wheel balancers (http://www.centramatic.com/New_Catalog/300series.php). I'm having a dickens of a time getting my BFG 315's to balance properly, and I figure a set of these would help out. Anyone try them before ? Opinions ?

I tried dyna beads about a year ago in the truck, had more problems than before I used them, could be my fault I don't know, at any rate they didn't work for me. This summer I decided to give the centramatics a try. Did a four thousand mile road trip with them and love them. Ride is smooth as silk. This is with the stock 265/70 16 tires though. The only thing is my mechanic told me to regularly check to make sure the lugs are tight because apparently they are known to work their way loose with automatic wheel balancers, although I have had no problems yet after 10 000 miles. Sorry for the long post.

I've run centramatics and equal and balance beads, they all work if you have good tires! but if your tires are good, WHY spend the money on them, it's way cheaper to just get them balanced properly. The best/only balancer to use is a Hunter 9700 Road Force. This will match mount and balance your tires correctly, very little the tire lump can do to screw your balance up.
