Getting ready for tires , was wondering if anyone has used these either together or separately and what the thoughts or results are.
Thanks Marty

As the article mentioned, this poster did NOT follow the 2-scoops recommendation, and therefore, can't be held up as an accurate review. Never heard of these beads nor do I really care to try'em out......just wanted to be CLEAR that the reviewer failed to follow the instructions.

Yet in general they work just fine…you know that.
Also to the OP, I can’t think of a reason why the type of valve stem would make a difference in either scenario (weights or balance beads).

Together. Love the Borg’s. Tire balance rides smooth with the beads so far after 3,000 mi. .
