Default Dyna-Beads for Tire Balancing

Can anyone help me? I thought I had read about them on this site and I tried the SEARCH method but could not find anything about balancing Model A tires with Dyna-Beads.

Does anyone out there have any experience with Dyna-Beads in balancing Model A wheels? Thanks.

I only drive my A's up to maximum 45 mph but I have never needed beads that I am aware of. Is it only at speeds over 50 that the need would show up. All my cars have new tires installed when I bring them home. Could that be the reason ? Equal rubber all the way around due to no wear .

Go to your nearest truck tire store, I mean a store that handles tires for eighteen wheelers. They balance tires using a process called "sanding", which is the same as dyna-beads. My local store in Elgin, Illinois did all five of my A's tires for less than the cost of buying beads from a supplier.

And they work like a charm.
