    Ceramic Tyre Beads

    Just had five 285XR75X16 Maxxis 980 AT's fitted. The tyre guy talked me into using ceramic beads instead of wheel weights. I was not sure they would work on larger tyres but they are brilliant. Just went for a run around town and also on the freeway varying the speed from zero to 110 kph and there is no vibration at all. The best thing is that in theory the tyres should never need rebalancing, as they rebalance themselves continuously. Also, I don’t have to worry about weights coming unstuck on the mags.

    Good so far. I guess time will tell.
