Baystate Jeepers

Alright... these 35's have been a nightmare to balance.
They've been to the shop twice now, and I'm pretty fed up. (not only with the tires, but also the shop... but that's a different story)

Considering hitting the wally, grabbing 2kg of airsoft beads and tossing 10oz in each.
I've also got some #8 shot just kicking around, but I'm wary of lead pulverizing and getting airborne with the amount of airing up and down.
Anyone using beads on their DD? Pros? Cons?

I've tried the BB method twice, both times I didn't get them to work. With my E rated 33's, I ran 8oz per tire and they were no where near balanced. I've always gone back to the shop and had them balanced properly. Try another shop, and make sure they know how to clock the tire on the wheel, and adjust that if they have to. They may need to physically rotate the tire 90-180 degrees on the wheel to get the thing to balance.

What kind of tires are they? Google them to see if its a known issue with that brand/style. Some tires just don't balance well.

They're General Grabber X3's which by most accounts balance really well.
The shop broke down 2 of them and reclocked them, and it's a shop I've had good luck with in the past, so I assume they know (or knew) what they're doing.
I've called around a little, another shop is probably my next step, but I'm still curious to balancing beads. The 45-65 shake is killing me on the highway.

What wheels?

They were balanced with the ring attached all 3 times.

Beads don't fix lateral movement.
What are you running for air pressure? Everyone I see filling up put way to much air in tires. They are truck tires ment for 7000 lb truck not 5000 lb jeep.
Try lowering pressure to like 28 see if makes difference.
If go with beads ceramic work best especially if daily driving it.
Also take a look at wheel bearings, steering, etc extra weight of tires could be making a worn part react different than stock tires.

I've got them set to 30 now, I can drop them further, I'll give it a shot.

When dropping PSI , Id mark the tread with chalk or parts marker . When you drive it try to stay just off the edge of the tread with PSI. The chalk will wear off first and you can see how close to the edge you are. FjR68
