They are all the rage now you may as well put them on too! It's just peronal taste. Although I will agree most of the pics posted here look great, especially the 4X4's, the chrome bling bling doesn't go well with mud. You gotta do whats right for your taste.

 

I went by a tire shop and was talking to the manager about my OE 05 Stx wheels and that I was getting them powder coated, so I asked about the wheel weights - can they be painted or do they have any painted, etc.. He said that I could achieve a "clean" look by having them on the back and taped to the inside of the wheel. I understand that the taped weights have the possibility of coming off. Does anyone have any suggestions on this?

 

I have had taped weights come of, once. But it was an admitidly rare occurance. I believe it was due to not being put on correctly to begin with, not a problem with the stickum.(Is that a word?)
I have mine balance with taped and clamp on wieghts, they run nice and true. Depending on your wheel of course you will see more or less of the stick on/taped kind.

Good luck choosing.

 

Sorry for the late reply. I haven't seen this thread in a while. Before we hijack it here is the link.

Thanks for the reply. My truck is a 2wd w/ no offroad possibilities and the wheels will go from powder coat straight to the tire shop for the 295 nitto's. I have read a few other posts on this forum about taped weights, so I will have no problem w/ this national chain tire shop doing the work.

 

THese are the wheels I have been looking for. Is there a good place to order and what is a fair price to expect to pay?

Thanks,
