Rear Tires

[quad handler]

Is it possible for a stone or something to get through the bead of the tire? I had a weird rattle in the back end and took the tires off to check it out and the tire alone was making the noise, sounds like its full of marbles and rubber balls. anyone else ever have this this trouble?

Fro what IDK to be honest with you foxhondarider i think they come like that from the factory and yes they are little rubber balls, i guess its supposed to make the tires act like putting wheel weights on a car tire to balance them out a little better.Not sure if all ATV factory's do this or what but i had those little balls in my stock tire too.

If you break the balls up they look more like dirt that have picked up rubber from rolling around the inside of the tire.
