I put Dyna beads in when I changed my rear tire last time, so far I have no problems. But I just tossed them in before I seated the beads so I wouldn't have to deal with any other kind of installation.

I use them with tubes, front and rear. No problem.

I put dyna beads in my 21 inch wheel when I bought it. I like them. No vibration or any wobble. There a keeper in my book.
