To calculate the balance beads weight (\(BB\)):
\[ BB = \frac{TW}{13} \]
Where:
Balance beads, also known as tire weights, are weights that get attached to tires in order to provide a better balance on the tire, which translates to better mileage. They are used to ensure that the tire rotates evenly and smoothly, reducing uneven tire wear and improving the overall performance and longevity of the tire.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ BB = \frac{65}{13} = 5 \]
The balance beads weight is 5 ounces.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ BB = \frac{104}{13} \approx 8 \]
The balance beads weight is approximately 8 ounces.
