16" Aftermarket Wheels

[SWDoodle]

I ordered a new set of 16x8 Moto Metal 951's last week that should be arriving this week. I have a concern about balancing them. They don't have a lip in the front to hang a weight. I don't think you can hang a weight on the back either because the front caliper is so close to the edge of the wheel. Anyone had this situation? Man I hope I don't have to return these wheels.

Any competent shop can balance them properly.

Many new wheels don't have a lip(s). These wheels are balanced with stick on weights.

The stick on weights I had to use on my 2500 HD with 16" wheels were about as thin as a stick of chewing gum. We then put a piece of duct tape over the top of the weight to make sure nothing has an edge to catch the weight. Anything thicker and it will get torn off as the clearance is very small but i have put 160,000 miles on these wheels using this technique. I have been to a couple of the shops that refused to accept my direction and did it there way. The weights got torn off within the first few miles.
