I bought a set of Goodyear 399a fuel max steer tires today and the dealer suggested balancing beads to go with em so I thought wtf I'll try em .
Anyone else use em ?

well can say it did not work for me always getting in the valve stem letting out air. after the third flat on the drive it all came out and eight new valve stems. Would never have it again. I use the rings and love them. Hope you have better luck. Before you all tell me about the special screened valve stems I had them still leaked air out

I use them on the steers and they took the rumble out.

I use them in the steer tires and haven't had any issues.
CoyoteExpress and bzinger Thank this. -
Use them on all 10 wheels of my harvest truck, offsets the mud on open roads.

I have them in my steers and drives.

Steers Spin balance and balance rings. Drives just balance rings.
I have used beads, no problems with air loss. The beads clump when changing tires. -
I use beads in all my tires with great results. The only way to balance a tire imo. My current steer tires are G399's and well over 150,000 miles now with balance beads. They were wearing perfectly until recently but the tread is almost worn out, I need an alignment, and they're about to be replaced.
