"rgatinet1".....has it right. I was a spin balance fanatic.....the only way to go, but times have changed and I find that the beads work great. They will continue to balance the tire for it's entire life, where realistically you would need to rebalance and a few years with weights.
The best of both worlds would be to spin balance and correct any major weight issues and then add a bag of beads for fine balancing.
I do both the spin balance then beads. The beads may not handle a dynamic balance as well as the beads. The spin takes care of the dynamic and the beads will take care of brake drums on trailers and rotors on cars and trucks.
I have never had the unbalance on start up as some have described on my 2500 HD pickup.
