Guys, Dooley came in here with a bad vibration. He had these beads all in them. And of course, bees most time don't work. And they definitely don't work. If you put them in a regular Ziploc and the bag don't bust open. Right. It's crazy. So the type of bag that these beads are supposed to be in disintegrates when they start to go around in the tire. It busts all open. Well, these don't. So the beads are staying in one's place. But that's not the only problem. So we got the mud claw comp MTXs. So we did road force. These tires, some are coming out good and some are coming out bad. 40 and 69 is bad. It should be above 35. All right, so we forced match this one. Which one? Which means we rotated that tire. We match these lines together. Now let's go ahead and put it on the road force and see if we can't bring that down. Noisy because it's got some big knobbies on there. But still, after the force matching and everything, it still got 58 pounds of force, and it's calling for about 12 ounces of weight. Tires no good. Do not buy these things.
