Re: Wheel balancing and weights



     Chad:
     
        There is a difference in the clip on weights.  I'm not sure what it 
     is though.  This has happened to me and my Coupe GT several times.  It 
     is usually the  weights on the inside of the rim.  I did have an 
     outside one cut loose at 65 mph one time and whack my drivers sideview 
     mirror.  And it is a hell of a racket when a lead projectile hits the 
     wheelwell at speed.  A guy at a frame shop told me that they make a 
     clip on weight for just about every type of rim though.  The problem 
     is that places like the Price Club etc. don't always have them.  Just 
     be glad you're not the guy behind you!
