I'm not surprised at his attitude. He sells tires and the beads lengthen the life of tires effecting his bottom-line.
I doubt one would hear anything positive from a tire salesman.

Agree^^^^^

Checked my receipts, brand new Michelin 215 85R 16 tires installed, tubeless 10/15/07, Dyna Beads at home the same day. Sixteen thousand miles with the beads, I'll take pictures tomorrow.
