Whats up guys,

When I was finishing up detailing my truck today, I noticed one of the counterweights for one of my rims on the ground. Is this going to be a problem where I need to have it replaced or should I keep on. I have 26's by the way!

I've had good results using a dab of silicon applied to weight and pressed on to clean(with alcohol) site on the rim. position the wheel so the area is 6 o clock so gravity doesn't fight you, and, this will also allow the right site before you adhere the weight. hope this helps.

Depending on how many grams/ounces it was you may feel a shimmy. If you don't feel anything in the steering wheel or your seat, you willbe fine for now as you have new wheels coming.

If you were not getting new wheels, I would suggest that you take it to a tire shop and have them re-balance the wheel in question.
