would having your tires balanced with the normal lead weights AND then adding the airsoft for back up or discrepencies (sc) work or is that a bad idea

To quickly answer your question - Yes you can.....

I did the tire weights with the pellets on a set of :ar15: trxus that would not blanace no matter what was done to them. I mean I tried everything from spinning the tire on the wheel, flipping tire over on the wheel, yelling, cussing, screaming, crying, contemplated suicide and pleaded with them but nothing seemed to work.:littlefriend: So as a last ditch attempted to keep sanity I tried the weights witht he pellets and low and behold it worked.:luxhello:

The tire needs to balanced with weights first and then if you are using a good tire shop, they break the bead and drop the pellets into the tire without losing the balance they just placed on the tire. Now I run the Maxxis Bighorn with 12 oz pellets per tire and don’t need the lead weights. Only with those blasted :ar15: trxus’s I had to do this combination.
