14 Ounce Tire and Wheel Balancing Beads
Wheels are a rotating mass that is made up of several parts that can weigh hundreds of pounds. All together all of these parts and their imperfections without balancing the complete wheel assembly can lead to mechanical repairs, tire expenses and fuel loss. The vibrational forces created by an out of balance wheel assembly damages more than just tires. Over time it is a predominant factor for loosening U-bolts, wheel lugs, maxi booster clamps and torque rod bolts. When you balance a tire using conventional wheel weights you are only balancing the rim and the tire, you are not balancing the brake drum, rotor or axle. These parts are not made perfectly balanced and wear unevenly. Withour wheel balancing beads you can balance the complete wheel assembly.
