Time for a new CT and wondering where y'all are getting them from? Roboto65 was kind enough to give me some last year.

Thanks

I have seen online where some folks are using air soft pellets too. No personal experience on my part either way. ~Jeff

I got mine from Carr's Tires in Baytown (yeah, I know.  Funny.  He would have mounted my Darkside tire, too, if I had brought it to him...)

GOD, I love this club.  I guess its true, you do learn something new everyday.  The last rig(18 wheeler) I bought I used the Centramatic rings on my steer tires and there was a huge difference versus weight balancing.  I've heard of the beads but didn't realize I could do the same thing when I go Darkside.  I've never heard of the ride on though.  I may go one way or the other when I do change over. I'll have to do more research on the beads or other ways before I change over.

Seals and balances.  Won't hurt your rims.  Not messy at tire change time, in fact the tire change guys didn't even notice it was in there.  Been using it for probably 20,000 miles.  No issues.

IMO, it has all the advantages of beads, plus puncture protection.

Thanks a lot, I will do some reading and make a decision.  I still have to find a tire at a decent price, but will have to wait till I have the cash to do everything.
