The beads use centrifugal force to relocate inside the tire, creating a dynamic balance across the entire wheel assembly without wheel weights. Made from 99.9% tempered glass spheres and packaged in an internal bag system, they’re reusable, recyclable and intended to stay contained inside the tire to prevent contamination or rim damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do the beads balance my wheels automatically?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs your wheel spins, the glass beads move to the point of imbalance and counterweight the heavy spot on the tire, continuously readjusting across changing conditions.
