Question is what is best way to do this? Some say open and spread rim, which I am afraid we
cannot get back together, Or deflate tires and take to tire shop? Do not want to damage tires?
Any help out there, Maybe someone has done this and can help.

Frankly, while not perfect, they don't seem all that bad to me. I am using the Firestone 600/650x17s this time, they have a nicer look and seem to have deeper tread to begin with. I haven't decided yet whether or not to mount them myself, but in any event am considering using Dyna Beads this time. Anybody have any experience with them?

As to spin balancing, if you drive your car, using the Hunter 9600 balancer makes sense. Whatever you think about Corky, you should find this this video on quick matching tires & wheels interesting: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YknM9_M2yPQ In a check of shops in my area, it seems like it's mostly those that handle big trucks that have the 9600, which in itself tells us something. ]]> CCCA - Tech Questions Mike Dube http://forums.aaca.org/f125/dyna-beads-350192.html http://forums.aaca.org/f125/much-smoke-350168.html Mon, 29 Apr 2013 21:02:19 GMT I have a 27 Chrysler Finer 70, 219 6 Cyl, that sat for 20+ years it is running and sounds great.

I am thinking stuck rings? is there any way to isolate this and is there anything I can use to try to clean it out and regain power without a complete overhaul overhaul?
