They're pretty much a waste of money, modern tires are pretty balanced anyway. Just put the light spot by your valve stem and see how it balances out. If you need to, put a wheel weight opposite the heavy spot and try again.
Don't over-think it... some of us don't bother with fully balancing wheels anymore
I have used beads in the past, just so you know I'm not talking $hit. I bet they do something, but I certainly didn't see the need for them. I didn't notice any difference in tire wear/longevity or handling.
