Well I fixed the balance issue. When they put beads in they use a chart for the tire size but don't account for the lug depth or width of the tire. This may result in not enough beads being added. I had them add another oz in each tire and my balance issue is gone. They were reluctant to do it so I had to pay for it to prove my theory but it was a success so I guess worth it.
Just some info for others who have this issue.

I run 5oz of ceramic beads in my 285-75R16s and they are very smooth. I tried them with the weights still on and had a vibration. I took off all the stick on weights and no more vibration.
