Equal as in the sweetener/ suger substitute?I work in a tire shop, and we use equal on all steer tires for balancing. They ajust as the tire wears out and reballance the tire every time you drive. I run Equal in my tires, and I have had no issues. I'm running 46.5" tall tires also much harder to balance then smaller tires. I used to run a product called Tire Life it helped keep the tires cooler on the highway but after having a blowout and having that stuff cover the side of the vehicle I went back to using Equal.

Yes I think that’s what he’s talking about. What Overlander runs 46” tires? The transportation industry, ( trucking ) experimented with using balancing beads decades ago. The experiment failed. Sound like the Tire Life product worked really well too. Does anyone remember when they had a lot of people convinced that nitrogen filled tires was a good thing for ordinary automobiles?Equal as in the sweetener/ suger substitute?

A voice of pragmatic reasoning.The only advice I have is, that if you use beads make sure they are steel so you can use a magnet to get them out if you dismount the tire in the field.
I totally agree with @bgenlvtex, his post is spot on.

That looks like pet cereal. Is it any good for human consumption?
