Dyna Beads for balancing

[Al 29Tudor]

Has anyone used Dyna Beads to balance your "A" wheels? I've heard motorcycles and trucks use them but is there any experience for us with "A"'s
Thanks in advance.

Do a search on "dyna beads".

As I recall, some foiks have used them and been pleased.

I asked the FB members this same question as well after I first saw them in a new Synders catalog. Learned alot quickly on this technology and so this last year when I replaced my 19 inch tires and used the balancing beads. I was able to remove 4 ounces of lead weights on each of my wheel rims that were there from a previous dynamic spin balancing job done at a Firestone tire store that had an old machine with the right sized collets. I used the 4 ounce package per tire. I have not experienced any problems or issues of any kind and the 30 Tudor runs smoothly down the road at any speed.
I used a vibrating etching tool held against the rubber valve stem to put the beads into the tubes. It would have been a chore without doing it this way as the beads are prone to static and won't flow through the valve stem easily.

I use them in all my A's!!! And have shared with other club vehicles. They do make a noticeable difference.

I'm guessing you'll only see a difference if your wheels are out of balance. Evidently mine were not because they made no difference. But they didn't have any adverse effects either. Don't let this discourage you; I still think they do the job they are intended for.

I bought them but I was unable to get them into the valve stem. Is there a trick to it?

I bought "The kit" from Snyders. It comes with a squeeze bottle and tiny funnel.

I had a friend hold the funnel in place and apply a vibrating writing tool while I squeezed the beads out into the funnel very slowly.

The beads flowed in great if I didn't get too anxious and squeeze too many beads at a time.

We did 5 tubes in about an hour. Haven't had a chance to take a drive yet.

I use them and very pleased with the result. Very easy to install following the instructions provided. I removed the valve from the stem, filled the bottle half way, pushed the plastic tube over the stem, gently held a palm sander to the stem and "bob's your uncle" done in minutes.

A couple of my tubes seem to have a "flap" of rubber, or some kind of restriction just at the base of the stem. I used a wire or O ring awl to break thru it, and then I was able to get the beads in on those two tubes. Chuck

I've used them for several years with no problems. 5 oz per wheel. Put them in SLOWLY!!

I've used them for a few years with no problems. No ugly weights on the rims and the tires never go out of balance, since they re-balance each time the wheel rolls. Be sure to get the new valve cores from Dynamic Balancing, with the filter attached so you wont blow the beads out when you check the tire pressure.

LOVE mine, slight vibration in the front completely gone.
IMO they were worth the money and no problems installing

Sounds like "Miracle Beads". Thanks for all the responses. Almost everyone likes them and no negatives. I'll be getting them soon. Thanks again.
