Same principal but Magnum handles moisture better and wont foul the valves due to it's new improved design.

After installing the autobalance do you still need check the tyre is balanced properly on the tyre balancing machine?

OK if you use the machine to put in then you should recheck it
if you use the buckett form you can put an extra scoop and should be ok
On the record your meant to check it on a machine

Generally spaeking, tyre balancing machines don't spin fast enough or for long enough to allow Magnum to perform effectively to get posative results from the machine.

they did this with front end loaders and more for years... NFI in 4b app.. I wouldnt think the gear Jones is selling would be that expensive though.
I've heard that one too, specifically it was tractors and it wasn't to balance the tyres but rather to aid traction.
