Counteract Tire Balancing Beads For 12" Trailer Tires

Question

Question:

I am considering balancing beads for Kenda 12 trailer tires AM10140. The balancing beads state they are for larger tires and trucks only. Do you sell balancing beads for trailer tires? This is for a single axle trailer.

The Counteract Tire Balancing Beads # CA68VR provides you with 4 bags of beads for 4 tires on 8" to 12" wheels. The kit includes the beads, valve core wrench, injection bottle, 4 valve cores and caps. This will give you enough for your current tires and a set for the next set of tires you get on the trailer.
