- 2016 Ford F150 with 35x12.50R20 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. 3 shops have tried to balance these and I still have a vibration. Found out about Counteract balance beads and figured I'd give them a shot. Check it out to see our results! Did they eliminate my vibration? Had the tires balanced and road force balanced before trying these beads.
If you ever have to do it again after you let all the air out of the tire and you have the bottle hooked up with the tube all you have to do is jack the truck up on that side and the action of lifting the weight off the tire as it reforms it creates a vacuum inside the tire and as it fills up with air it will suck the beads in and just takes a few seconds.
Thank you for that, but I will never use them again personally. But I hope that helps someone watching! :)
Excellent. Thankyou.
If you didn’t remove the sticky balance weights from the rim I would recommend doing that and trying just the balance beads.
Ended up being the hub centric ring
@@SurvivorClassicCars what was wrong with the hubcentric ring?
@@hotrodyj worn out I guess? Gave the axle room to vibrate.
@@SurvivorClassicCars thanks for the update
Dang man you should update the video you left it saying the beads didn’t work for you when the beads weren’t even the problem. And it took you 45min per tire because you didn’t know there’s an easier way all you have to do is jack up the truck and the beads will suck in as the vacuum created inside the tire sucks air in the beads will suck in as well. Just takes a few seconds.
release air with tire on the ground, remove valve, put tube with bottle in and then lift car, tire will suck in stuff from bottle :)
Put 36 pounds in front 34 in back perfect ride see what happens with vibration.
no doubt. why in the balls is he running mid 40s tire psi?
@keemez tires say max load capacity on 10 ply 35s, usually 65psi. So we should be running half that? I tow occasionally so legitimately curious. Local tire shop does only beads in tires of 33" and when I first had them put on I literally couldn't drive on the highway for first 500 miles, till bags broke open I'm guessing. Still shakes a bit at 70. I too am running 45-50psi.
higher psi = harsher ride
Did you fix the vibration or what caused it?
Jesus u only put 4oz in.... 16oz min for 35s
Put in exactly what the manufacturer said for that size tire, and no change. Thanks!
@@SurvivorClassicCarsyeah 4 Oz won't do anything in 35s
Bro I have the same tire .
And I have the same problem.
A lot vibration on highway about 65 mph.
I don't know what to do.
2018 ram 2500
Mine ending up being a $20 axle seal on the truck. Put the same tires on my new F250 and no vibration either.
I have same problem with my 2018 ram 2500 Dealership said it was “Normal they all do it”
Retired now, but in the day, tires that big were a pain to balance. Normally, we would have to break the tire back down and spin tire on wheel 180° try to get a better spin balance. Usually, it takes 3.50 to 4.00 of weight to balance
17 ram 33s and leveled. Radar renegades. Vibration also. Just had beads installed have yet to drive it. Road force balance doesn’t do anything!
@@SurvivorClassicCars Just asking? How did a seal cause vibration? Again just asking? A axle bearing I can understand?
4 ounces are not enough.
Everyone keeps saying that but I went by the manufacturers recommendation. Again, that didn't end up being the issue for my truck anyway. :) thanks for watching!
