Balancing beads vs. wheel weights

Balancing beads are for large tires (semi, off-road, &c) and have little or no effect on passenger car sized tires. Even less effect with low aspect (less than about 65-70)

Balancing beads are for large tires (semi, off-road, &c) and have little or no effect on passenger car sized tires. Even less effect with low aspect (less than about 65-70) tires. Not meant to be used with "sports" tires.

If you are sure the tire was balanced properly, you may have other problems - worn suspension parts, bad tire, &c. First thing I'd so is get the tires inspected and balance re-checked. If vibration persists, I'd look at the suspension.
