I have what the tire dealer referenced as "Beads" so I think same as ronniedean. Aluminum RV wheels for the 110# tires have a thick lip so normal weights will not stay on. This limits you to stick on weights on inside of wheel if you have the clearance or the powder/beads. Randu
I have used beads in the past on my old 08 dually. still have to get done on my 2012. didn't think about using on the FW. - laknoxNomad

I saw a trailer going down the highway with the rear wheel jumping up and down. I am sure the driver believes trailer tires do not need to be balanced but will complain that the ST tires are junk when that tires blows in the near future.
I use balance beads so re-balancing is not needed. All tires that have only weights need to be rebalanced after 5-10 thousand miles just the same as the tires on your passenger car. A tire is a tire.
Saw that just last summer. No shocks on his trailer either. Tire was jumping 3-4" off the ground on the left rear.
