    Use these on our internationals and f700’s at work. Trucks are almost undrivable without them. In fact I had a tire place put to steer tires on a truck and forgot to put the beanbags in and the driver noticed something was wrong within the first mile. Just my experience.

    So, with these you wouldn't have tape weights or the weights that clip on the rim? Any reason these shouldn't be used for personal vehicles? I didn't look at cost...

    I have never heard of this and I am surprised they work so well. Seems like they should come with a Tornado air induction and fuel line magnet. But if it works, can't argue with results!

    Shit you can get those fuel line magnet “ATOMIZERS” at harbor freight. If it’s at harby, it’s gotta be legit.

    A guy I know has them in his Ram with big tires. I was looking at them for my car, it shows basically everything except current pass cars. Maybe the tires are too low profile or something...???
