I have some experience with balancing beads, and yes in theory they work on a narrower tire. The problem is that you have no idea how many ounces of beads to put in, plus your will never be able to balance them again by conventional methods. What I did on the front of my 50 4100 was just use the free spinning front wheel hubs to balance them by trial weights opposite of where the tire would stop rotating at BDC. Pretty simple method.
