<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">I exclusively use stick-on weights on the inside of the wheel, and use the racers’ trick of covering them with duct tape, the silver foil type with the peel off backing. My balancer gives me choices for static or dynamic balance locations but mostly use static around the inside center of the rim width. Not an original idea. SASCO Motorsports, from whom I purchase my race tires, does them this way. I do this on alloy, steel and wire wheels. I do first clean the surface where the weights will go.<div><br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature"><div dir="ltr">Sent from my iPhone</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Jun 12, 2024, at 8:14 AM, eric@megageek.com wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><font size="2" face="sans-serif">Great hive mind...</font>
