Your solution is the first time I've heard of that.
I like the balance bead solution. There are many offerings in that product space. Cheap and definitely worth a try.
Given the miles we've put on our 4Runner and the number of tires and all the things we did to try and address this, only to have a good road force balancing correct it at a late stage in the vehicle's life, I would avoid throwing expensive parts at it I did all sorts of tests on the suspension and front end, thinking it was worn, but it was not. I've just come to the conclusion that these vehicles are hyper sensitive to out of round tires and the quality of today's tires is piss poor.
