moon discs and wheel wieghts

[busman]

Maybe a stupid question but we want to use screw on moon discs on our front wheels. How do you mount them with wheel weights on the rim? If you remove them how do you balance your wheels?

 

[dawg]

you can have them spun balanced in the static mode, and put all the weights on the back side of the wheel...

 

[Gastrick]

Right, put the weights on the back side of the wheel.

^^^^^^ exactly !

Yeah, the tire mounting guys usually give me a strange look when I request the weights on the backside, but those things are just UGLY!!

or use stick on ones behind the disc's

i worked at a tire shop for a few years, i'd do a dynamic balance and use stick-on weights on the front, regular on the back. if you need weight on the front, adding it to the backside won't solve the problem, you might still have a slight shake. static balance is old technology, the new balancing machines are really sensitive and a good technicion should be able to get it perfect.
