Has anyone ever tried the balance bags or beads, if so are they worth the money?

I bought a 20 oz tub of airsoft bbs and put about 5oz per tire for my 33" coopers. I drive freeway every day and have had zero issues. The only time it shows is if you hit a significant bump you get a little shudder as they shift and adjust. That, and you can hear them as you stop at a light with the windows down.

I have tried this on my 35x12.50 MTR's and they did not work. I though that damn dash board was going to shake apart on the highway. Belle tire got it balanced right with weights. I tried it again on a smaller set of 31's and it was not right either. I had then rebalanced conventionally. I tried airsoft pellets then the stuff that Belle tire sells. It was not really noticeable till around 60mph.
