The shimmy comes and goes, sometimes at low speed, sometimes at 50mph while accelerating to highway speed. I’m running MTZ’s 35s with balance beads. Is this a normal occurrence with balance beads? Again, it doesn’t happen all the time so what could it be and how can I stop this from happening?

Pull the balance beads and have the tires road force balanced. It could be an out of balance tire, a structural tire defect, and even something lose in your front suspension…check torque values on everything up front.
