Balancing Beads vs Weights

Hey Scotty, I have a 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 Z71 with 102,500 miles. I just bought a new set of Method NV MR305 wheels for her and I was wondering if you suggested using wheel weights or balancing beads for these new wheels when I put the tires on them. Currently I’m running the stock wheels with General Grabber X3 tires size 265 70 R17 tires. The stock wheels ,which are on currently, have wheel weights but they (the stock wheels) are all corroded and I’ve heard that these wheel weights could be the culprit aside from weather and normal wear and tear. I’ve also heard that balancing beads can eat up the inside of your tires since they roll around all the time. So which should I go with?

Stick with the weights.
