No, but I use "Ride On" and have through 3 sets of tires. Works as advertised except,, having not yet taken a nail or screw in a tire I can't attest to how good it seals. Balancing ? Not an issue.

On my Kawasaki, i put the DynaBead equivalent from Dennis Kirk (Counteract motorcyle balancing beads) the day before a 1350 mile trip on my brand new rear. They were awesome. Didn't notice any vibrations whatsover from the wheels. Definitely will use the beads going forward on the motorcycles.

Used them for years in my bike shop. Never had a complaint or a problem. Use them on all of my own motorcycles.

The only advice I've learned here is that you need at least as much beads as the weight required to balance your wheel. You may be thinking "of course", but some folks only added the recommended beads when they really needed more. I don't think you can have too much, but you will notice too little.

I've used Dyna Beads and CounterAct for years and they never let the wheel/tire get out of balance and definitely extend the mileage life of the tire significantly.

Which makes sense as it doesn't allow them to make money from their balance machines.

Just have them mount the tire and add the beads when you get it back... Wheel weights are fugly....
