There has to be a reason they sell this stuff.
I have tried a set of 34's with 225 grams of #8 shot in them. Today, I put 200 miles on a set of 235/85-16 with 175 grams of #8 shot. Same results with both sets.
It almost seems cyclical. Driving along smooth as can be, then almost violent shaking for a while, then OK again. It seems as if the tires do this individually, rarely in sync, so there's almost one giving up a shimmy all the time. Speed has little effect, it happens at 50 as easily as it does at 90.
So, has anyone actually used any media with good results? Before I toss down $75 for some magic ceramic beads, I'd like to hear that they actually work.
And why can't you just use anti-freeze?
