Glad to have you sir and welcome to our site! Most are running the 205/60/16 and 65 series tires. Some even are riding the 55 series which is a pretty short profile and for me cause too many rpm's at highway speed. You are already don't get the best gas mileage already on the 1800 so I would stay away from the 55 series. JMO

Secondly, they are called "Dyna Beads" from Innovative balancing. They can be installed through the valve stem.
