Notes:
How Counteract Tire Balancing Works
Once your tire begins to roll, the beads will get distributed around its interior thanks to centrifugal force. As the wheel continues to spin, the heavy spot in your unbalanced tire will pull up and down on your vehicle's suspension. This will cause the beads to shift in the opposite direction of that pull. The beads will continue to migrate until there are enough of them on the opposite side of the heavy spot to balance your tire.Before Installing Counteract

I received everything.
You guys had just what I needed
Fast delivery thank you.
Product came promptly, was what I ordered, and I was satisfied how it was shipped.
Just 4 stars for packaging and instructions. HAVE NOT INSTALLED the product yet. will re-review when that happens.
To tell you the truth I have not used them yet. I get mixed feelings and comments from people that this can't really work so why put it in your tires. I'm still thinking of trying it.
Not wanting to break the bead of the tire (not have proper tool), put the beads in thru the valve body (schrader valve removed). WHAT A PAIN! Beads kept clogging the valve body and had to be pushed thru with a straightened paper clip. But it slowly filled and completed the job.
I have open center wheels on one of my trailers and nobody can balance them or don’t want to. So I added this product to them and made a big difference on my 8-14.5 inch tires.
The beads that came packaged correctly were fine and easy to use however I lost a quarter or more of 2 different bags out of the 8 purchased because the little bags of the beads appeared ok until I went to pull them out and the bags were sliced in the middle so as I got them out of the outside bags they just went everywhere so they were of no use to me and a waste of money in my opinion. So I have 2 of 8 tires left unbalanced so yeah that’s how that turned out!
