Which wheel balancing beads are best for my vehicle?
You'll love how COUNTERACT wheel balancing beads work with any vehicle type. The 12 oz ECO XL beads are perfect for standard passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs. The tempered glass construction ensures consistent performance across all vehicle applications.
Do wheel balancing beads work better than traditional wheel weights?
Yes, balancing beads provide superior performance compared to traditional wheel weights. While wheel weights only balance at the specific RPM they were installed at, beads continuously readjust as you drive, providing automatic balance at all speeds. They also won't fall off like weights can, and they balance the entire rotating assembly rather than just the wheel.
Are these beads safe for TPMS sensors?
Absolutely. COUNTERACT wheel balancing beads are specifically designed to be TPMS compatible and will not damage your tire pressure monitoring sensors. The tempered glass material won't interfere with sensor readings or void any tire manufacturer warranties.
How long do the balancing beads last?
The beads provide lifetime tire balance - they last for the entire life of your tire. Made from durable tempered glass, they won't break down or lose effectiveness over time. When you replace your tires, you'll need new beads for the new set.
How does this compare to ceramic balancing beads?
COUNTERACT tempered glass beads offer superior durability and consistent performance compared to ceramic alternatives. The glass material maintains its shape and effectiveness throughout the tire's life, while the precise 2.55-3mm size ensures optimal balancing performance without creating dust or contaminants.
