I have used airsoft bb\'s in all of my tires on my jeep and love them. I would definitely recommend them for how little it cost to do it.

I\'ve used Equal Tire Performance in my last 4 sets of retread tires and like it!  4 oz drop-in bags for 33s around $5.00/bag including special filter valve stem.

Tires wear even and ride fairly smooth.  Keeps the ugly wheel weights off too if you\'re concerned about that sort of thing.

I\'ve had Equal, and I\'ve run airsoft. Huge fan of both.  The big benefit of Equal or DynaBeads is you won\'t hear them hitting the wheel as they fall off the tire as you come to a stop.  You\'ll hear the BBs every time you stop with the windows down or top off.

16oz of BB\'s wasnt good enough for one of my 42\"s above 44mph on the road.

Thanks for the info guys. I found Dyna Beads online for about $20 a tire, not sure if that is a good price. Is there a place around here you can buy equal?

20$ a tire sounds expensive.
