Fcw75 Hypersonic January 6, 2006 Share January 6, 2006 Do not remove them....they are stick onto the rims after the tire shop have done balancing on your rims. They are there for a purpose. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ieagle23 Neutral Newbie January 7, 2006 Share January 7, 2006 You will not have the same no or same counter-weight for the 4 wheels, it will be different depending on how much your wheel is off-center (can be rim or tyre related) If you remove some of the counter-weight yourself.....suggest to do a wheel balancing immed.....if not there will be uneven wear Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
