Beads

Let me toss one more small log into the camp fire.

I have never doubted the truthfulness of those who have had success; I was looking for the why/how it worked or some repeatable demonstration of success so I hope that I didn’t offend anyone with my skepticism.

Over the many, many years that I have known about “bead balancing” starting with the first recipe of a level teaspoon of No. 9 lead shot for a 6.50 X 16 tire. No one has ever suggested how it works.

After our discussion last night I did some real digging into the mathematics, would really have to do some fancy modeling to account for the 4 or 5 obvious variables. I quit that approach very quickly!

After exhausting my mental avenues, very easy to do these days, I thought that I would did around in the internet and do it the easy way and I did come up with a hit.

Would link not display in Firefox, I had to use IE.

I still have to do some thinking on it but it is an explanation.

Gil
