I think Im going to do the same and add them.
It was just a thought when I saw the advert for them that soft gun pellets would work.
In the advert they show a fluid bottle... whats that for??

Because of their size (dyna beads) they can be feed into the tyre via the air valve. So they use the bottle to pour them in thru the valve. Otherwise you would have to break the bead on the tyre and pour (or insert a burst bag). Airsoft BB's are too big to be fed into the tyre via the valve so you need to break the bead. The advantage of dynabeads is that they can be poured inside inner tubes... where as airsoft BB's are pretty much tubeless only.
If you use airsoft pellets get the heaviest you can get. I used 0.2g weighted and bought them in 5000BB bags from ebay.

There is a size chart provided by dynabead and it says my 235x85 16 should have 4oz per tyre, I put in 8oz anyway as the extra has no ill effect and help when u pick up mud on the rim. I would use the size chart as a guide and go a bit over.
