Default Caution about Dyna Beads

Hi

Simple caution about using Dyna Beads, be sure to use good metal value stem caps. Reason I say this is that years ago had a version of the beads put in the tires of my C60S tires by a heavy truck tire shop. No problem airing up the tires but later after adjusting air pressure down the the stem valves would not always seal complete. Blow a little air in problem would go away. Replaced the stem valves, same issue bleed air out valves would slow leak, quick blast of air in they sealed again. As a precaution replaced all the plastic value caps with good metal ones.

Now as to did the beads balance the tires no. These were used 11:00x20 military tires probably 50% tread cronic out of balance in the end replacement was the only fix.

Cheers
