Re: tyre beads

I have used a powder type of balancing product that i heard they use in truck tyres. I bought 2 bags off my local beurepairs shop and used a funnel and patience to put it inside the tubes. It worked fantastic with a 35" Silverstone Extreme on flipped rims with rim protection. Although the rims ...

You said in your 1st post, that the outside of the tyre is a long way from the inside of the rim.
How wide are your tyres??

Phase balancing would be the first port of call.
