Why customers choose NorthTrail Auto

ECO Balance 18-EBBXL is an 18 lb bucket of XL tempered glass balancing beads plus a 2 oz scoop, designed to auto-balance off-road, light-truck, and heavy-duty tires for smoother rotation and more even wear.

These ECO Balance XL EXTREME beads are engineered to sit inside the tire and dynamically shift with centrifugal force to continuously balance the wheel assembly while you drive. Supplied in a bulk 18 lb bucket with a measuring scoop, they’re intended for trucks, motorcycles, ATVs, and other off-road or light-duty truck applications where oversized or heavy tires demand a durable balancing solution. The beads are 99.9% tempered glass, reusable, and recyclable, offering a non-invasive option to traditional clip-on or stick-on weights.

How do these beads keep my wheels balanced on rough terrain?

The beads flow inside the tire cavity and redistribute themselves in response to centrifugal force so the wheel assembly maintains balance as conditions change. That continuous micro-adjustment helps limit vibration and reduces irregular tire wear that rough surfaces can accelerate.

  • Beads form a thin dynamic ring opposite heavy spots as speed increases
  • Works across varying loads and road surfaces without reapplication
  • Reduces resonance that can stress suspension components

Will using ECO Balance beads extend my tire life and save fuel?

By evening out rotational imbalances, the beads help reduce uneven tread wear and rolling resistance, which can translate to longer tire life and incremental fuel improvements at sustained highway speeds. Results depend on vehicle, tire type, and driving conditions.

  • Promotes more uniform tread contact and wear patterns
  • Can lower rolling resistance above highway speeds (typically over 55 mph)
  • Helps reduce vibration-related energy loss across the drivetrain

How do I install and measure the right amount for each tire?

Installation is done during tire mounting: add the recommended volume of beads to the tire before seating the bead and inflating. The included 2 oz scoop and the manufacturer’s application chart guide the proper amount based on tire size and application.

  • Scoop measured bead amounts from the 18 lb bucket per chart recommendations
  • Add beads to the tire when mounting new or replacement tires on wheels
  • No adhesives, weights, or wheel modifications required

Are these beads safe for my wheels and the environment?

ECO Balance beads are tempered glass spheres that remain inside the tire and wheel assembly, avoiding contact with the rim face and minimizing contamination risk. They are reusable and recyclable to reduce waste compared with single-use balancing methods.

  • 99.9% tempered glass to resist breakage under normal conditions
  • Installed inside the tire to protect wheel finishes and prevent external contamination
  • Reusable and recyclable for lower environmental impact

Who is this for: ECO Balance 18-EBBXL is aimed at owners and technicians who mount large, heavy, or off-road tires on light trucks, SUVs, ATVs, and motorcycles and who want a maintenance-free, lifetime balancing solution. It’s particularly suited for fleets, off-road enthusiasts, and shops that handle frequent tire changes or oversized wheel/tire combinations and prefer an internal, non-destructive balancing method over external weights.

FAQ

Q: Do ECO Balance beads work with tubeless and tube tires?

A: Yes. They are designed for tubeless and tube-type tires when installed during mounting; follow the application chart for correct amounts.

Q: Can beads be reused after tire removal?

A: Yes. Beads can be recovered, stored, and reused or recycled for later installations.
