I bought a set of 19.5 steel semi pattern 10 lug dually wheels and a new set of 245 70 19.5 Michelin tires for my tow rig.

I was going to use Dynabeads for balancing but they don't recommend them for 1 tons with 19.5 tires because of the light weight of the trucks. http://www.innovativebalancing.com/ProblemsWith19.5_22.5.pdf

Has anyone here had problems with lead weight balancing on 19.5s?

Commercial truck places balance 19.5's with lead weights every day.
Depends if they have a tech. doing the work, or a monkey.
I wouldn't worry about lead with steel wheels at all.
