tire balance

has anyone used the ceramic beads in there tires for balancing? i am getting ready to slap on a new set of 37's and was wondering if they work pretty well at slow speeds and high speeds?

On larger tires they are sometimes the best to use. Whenever we mount a set of 35's or larger, the beads go in. Its extremly hard to balance a large tire with normal weights. I also have found though, that with larger tires, sometimes balancing doesnt make a difference at all!
