I used bb's, granted i didn't put the proper amount in, but it only cost me $15 to mount and balance my 4 free tires i have.
Ill do this, or sand bags, but not weights for the next set of tires.

It's how they balance semi tires. At the tires roll the bbs fill the pitted areas and as the spin faster the bbs stay in place like a centrifuge.

The furthest it could fall is from the tallest part of the tire, if you are going slow enough, otherwise they are stuck to the tire.
No violent shotgun shot against the inside of my tire. Plus i like the sound of them on my rim when I'm going slow.

Well guys, looks like I won't have the rights to be on this forum any longer. I am selling my Cherokee to my brother in law.
But hopefully I will be getting a other one soon

He wanted a project car for under $1000 so I offer'd up my jeep.
