since scoots don't have tire weights on the rims the tires aren't balanced.... has anyone ever tried putting a couple ounces of Airsoft beads in side the tire to balance it??? .. just wondering if it would work

There are balancing beads offered for sale out there. Obviously when you stop theyfall down and then go back to balance when you start going again, seems they would wear out ove time.
You can try stick on weights if you have a wheel balance machine.

Don't know if they would work just as well. On paper and in theory (just kicking the idea around on here) it sounds like they would. However I'm not sure if I would take that chance. Things to consider would be weight of the individual pellets, how many to add based on size of tire...etc. The manufacturers of the beads made to balance bike tires have taken all of that into consideration and done the math for you already. Also with airsoft pellets I would think that you would have more wear on the inside of your tire than you really want.
