Not trying to take this thread down a rathole, but when you say motorcycle tyres, are you referring to your 2 wheel motorcycle, dmiles, or your Spyder? I only ask as the Spyder tyres are effectively car tyres, and as such, yes, Dyna beads are used in the Spyder tyres.

Just Sayin' 
Sure the earlier posts are from a year or so ago, Peter, but the post I was responding to was from yesterday, where two people mentioned Dyna beads and “bike” tyres. I was simply trying to confirm if those posters were under the misapprehension that Spyder tyres were the “bike” tyres to which they were referring.
i.e. trying to clarify the old chestnut “Special Motorcycle Use Only”…..meaning don’t try to mount these on a “normal” motorcycle, or on a car, as disaster will ensue…..thus covering BRP’s backside.
