    My whole set-up required a bunch of weights that I invariably trew off either on the trail or on the highway (two of my rims are out of balance as well as my tires). I asked them to do something a little more permanent the last time I took it to the tire shop, and they tossed two bags of some white powder in each tire and said "There, done". The guy told me that the bags break open while driving and the powder distributes itself around the inside of the tire. All I know is that I have not had a single issue with balance since then, smooth driving all the time now.

        and just for reference, tsl will never balance out to good

        I ran bb's and still required like 6oz steel weight to get them semi round for road use




        Equal sure looks better then a bunch of steel weights on the outside also

          I feel like there is a certain speed where the airsoft bb's have no effect, but I don't really know.
