That's what I've always done and it seems to work fine. BTW, if it was the space shuttle, the Jeep would be in a museum so balancing wouldn't be an issue!

Yea, I guess I should have posted it as a big aluminum yard dart.

i actually have some real bbs in the shed and think i have enough to do it so i am gonna give it a try. found that 7 ounces in a 35" tire should be good. i might put 7.5 ounces in to be safe.

Plastic or metal bbs?

DOUG:
REAL BB's ARE BAD NEWS!

Loud and wear on your wheel.

All I've heard, no personal experience.

I used ceramic in the TJ and they worked well.

Krawler00:
I have read countless posts and threads about both. It seems that some have issues with BB's, some don't. Some have clumping with ceramic, some don't. I can't see how it would hurt the wheels. The BB's are pinned to the tire once it gets up to speed and then fall about a foot onto the wheels lightly when stopping. Can't see how it would ruin a wheel. But we will see once I do the deal. For the time I will have the tires on, it's not worth balancing them in a shop. I plan on having these on the Jeep for less than 2 months. Might drive 200 miles in that time so not worried about it.
