lots of discussion on beads, centramatics and other tire balancing tricks on here. I have run equal in my 40's on my last truck. wasn't happy (but with a super swamper being a sqare tire anyways its a bad tire to compare to).
Beads
Just put them in. They work and help smooth out my 22.5 and cleans up the wheels without the weights. I had to break the beads on my tires, but wasnt that bad to do. Wouldn't go through the valve stem to well. I put
8oz in all my tires except for the inside rears. Worth the money just waiting to see how the long term results go.

I ran them in my 03 dually with great success. I have not had balance issues with my last couple sets of Toyo's so I haven't need the balance beads.
Buy the packets and break the beads to install, I fought the valve stems theory too.

Had great luck with beads in 37" BFG mudders and 37" Toyo mudders on my 01. I was pushing 50k on the BFGs when I changed them and the Toyos looked to be on track for at least that mileage. I pulled the valve stem core and cut a small water bottle in half. drilled a small hole in the lid to screw on to the valve stem and put the beads in the upside down half bottle. took a couple of shakes to get the last bit into the tires, but it worked fine.
Just got them yesterday, But they sent me the off road beads whitch are a little bigger and told me they will not fit thru the valve stem hole
Said the bigger beads are needed with 35" bfg's and other tires like that because the insides are not that smooth and the beads can get stuck in little pockets?
