I spoke with Counteract, and they explained that the Flexx is not a balancing bead and is not injectable through a valve stem as the particles are too large therefore It is not compatible with the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads Injector Pump # CA96FR.
If you are looking for a premium product with better performance and injection capabilities, you would need to use Counteract Balancing Beads like the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads Single Pack for Trailers # CA66VR. view full answer...
Special trailer tires do not really need to be given a full dynamic balance like passenger vehicle tires do, but tires on a tow dolly probably should be balanced since just these two tires will have an effect the overall handling of the dolly. I checked with Acme and they do recommend use of balanced tires on their tow dollies to minimize vibration.
The bead balancing technique originated in the heavy equipment world, on vehicles like dumps trucks for example, which typically have very... view full answer...
You can add the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA66VR to the Kenda Karrier ST235/80R16 Radial Trailer Tire with 16" Black Mod Wheel # AM34834 as we do not have the ability to balance wheels and tires at our facility. I always warn if tires are balanced and shipped that they should have balance verified at a shop as wheel weights can fall off in transport. By using the balancing beads they will balance the wheel and tire every time you drive ensuring proper balance. This is great for... view full answer...
Hey Randy,
The Counteract Tire Balancing Beads for 1/2-Ton, 3/4-Ton, and 1-Ton Trucks - 4 Tires # CA23FR would be the correct package of balancing beads for your 2003 Chevy Avalanche and tire size. This would allow you to balance your tires without having to clamp on or stick on wheel weights to your wheels.
If your tire has internal TPMS sensors, you will need to break down the tire to install these beads. If it doesn't you can lift the truck by the frame and let the air out of the... view full answer...

No, you do not need to remove the existing wheel weights in order to use the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA55FR. Although, if the wheel is already properly balanced and weighted, you really should not need balancing beads. So if you are having problems with the tires vibrating while driving, the balancing beads may help, but there may be an underlying cause other than tire balance. view full answer...
Hi Darryl,
The Karrier ST215/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire with 14" Aluminum Wheel # KE77JR does not come already balanced so you'll need to either take it to a tire shop or you can use some Counteract balancing beads to balance the tire yourself.

You do not need to get your trailer tires balanced before mounting. Some people like doing so but it isn't something required as trailer tires don't figure into handling the way car tires do. If you want you can add balancing beads after the fact to balance the tires if you feel the need to:
- 8 Inch, 9 Inch, 10 Inch, 12 Inch Tires: Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA68VR
- 13 Inch, 14 Inch, 15 Inch, 16 Inch Tires: Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA83VR view full answer...
The Taskmaster ST225/75D15 Bias Trailer Tire with 15" Silver Mod Wheel # TA62FR does not come balanced. This is due to the fact trailer tires do not require balancing. As their primary function is to support heavy loads and are not providing a comfortable ride like vehicle tires. We do offer the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA83VR which includes beads for up to 4 tires and the tools necessary to install the beads without breaking the bead on the tire. view full answer...
No, they do not Nick. The Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire with 14" Aluminum Wheel item # KE93JR you were looking at is received from the supplier already with the tire mounted on the wheel. The supplier does not balance the combination, but when the tire is installed to the wheel they will line the high (heavy) spot on the tire with the low (light) spot on the wheel. This does not completely balance the tire and wheel combination but it does eliminate any excessive out of balance... view full answer...
The Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Trailer Tire with 14" White Wheel # AM32153 does not come balanced as it is not as important to balance trailer tires like you balance car tires. Their primary job is to support heavy loads and not providing a smooth comfortable ride like in a passenger vehicle. This is why the majority of trailers do not have shocks or cushioning suspension from the factory. This does not mean you can't have the tires balanced at a nearby tire shop.

Hi Trevor,
The Kenda Karrier ST205/75R15 Radial Tire w/ 15" Silver Galvstar Wheel # KE66JR does not come balanced though you can add balancing beads to the tire if you'd like.

Brad, the Kenda 205/65-10 Bias Trailer Tire with 10" Galvanized Wheel # AM3H490 does not include balancing beads, so you'd also need the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads 4-Pack for Tandem Axle Trailers # CA63VR. view full answer...
The Kenda Karrier ST205/75R14 Radial Tire w/ 14" Series T09 Aluminum Wheel # AM34659 does not come balanced. Trailer tires do not require balancing like vehicle wheels and tires since their primary function is weight supporting. As it is an aluminum wheel only stick on weights should be used if you plan to take them to a tire shop to have balanced.
We do have the Counteract Tire Balancing Beads available in a Single # CA66VR or 4-Pack # CA83VR. These beads allow the tire to always be... view full answer...
The Counteract Filtered Tire Valve Core, # CA38FR is a step up from the # CA26FR. Each option replaces your existing tire valve core to work in conjunction with Counteract tire balancing beads.
The Equal Flexx product is not a balancing bead, it is a granular polymer compound. The concept is similar, but it is different. The Counteract tire valve cores are designed for their products, per the manufacturer, they should not be used with a different product line. view full answer...
