Hey guys im running the cbb in my 33s. I have about 6-7oz in each tire according to the chart they have. I am getting wobble at 40-45 if I go faster I dont have any vibs if I go slower im good too? Should I add more beads or take them out and use static wheel weights.

I also read that even though I have that many oz in my tires if a machince says add 5oz of weight add that many more beads is this true??

There's charts online that tell you how much weight you need... Google it. If you're getting a wobble you don't have enough or have too much.

I had about 8oz in my 33's and it made it much worse, about killed my back on a 10 hr drive home. Then found out 3 rims were bent removed the bb's and balanced with static weights and cannot get ride of the 45-50 and 70+ mph vibes but is better.

I added 2oz of wheel weights today no more vibs. The lateral tire is bad and bb can not fix that. Theres a slight bent rim put it in back still feel a slight vib but its much better and I can drive and now tow my trailer
