Nope. No issues. I have used balancing compound for 20 years in my tires with great success. Everything from semi truck balancing bags, to kitty litter, to glass beads, and now air soft bb's. The bb's are the best as they don't clog valve stems when airing down.

You're cute.... I don't know what pic you're referring too but I'm down to between 4-6 PSI every time I go out....... Airing down is a breeze and takes like 15 seconds from 28-30 PSI to as mentioned 4-6 PSI with my monster valves.... ON A SIDE NOTE..... I'D RECOMMEND MONSTER VALVES TO ANYONE READING THIS..... SO SWEET TO AIR DOWN SO QUICKLY.... And combined with my Powertank airing up is a breeze as well..... I timed it once 29 seconds from 4-6 PSI to 30 PSI ..... 37" MTR's
PS- I had some sweet shots of my tires flat to the beadlock but deleted them running out of storage space on my iPhone(1000 pics of my dogs were more important to save lol).... That's the best shot I have with my jeep... But included a shot of my regular wheeling buddy(green TJ) who normally goes down to 8 PSI and 2 pic's in the same spot you can see some nice tire bulge..... He uses Staun inner beadlocks and had rings from TMR Customs welded on to his steel wheels also MTR's but 35"..... Don't think you can use Monster valves with those Staun's tho.

Gotta throw out some more TR love. Larry is the man too!!
PS. This picture was taken the day after I got my rings powder coated, so no rock rash, and I am running like 28 psi because this is a total poser shot, so hate on that haters!!

Someone explain to me the logic behind powder coating beadlock rings? They look like crap the second they get thrashed. If they don't, you didn't need them.
