    Default Wheel weights

    Hey all, while I was cleaning my 2019 f3 base I noticed left wheel had 6 weights and my right wheel had 4 weights. Is that normal? Thanks

    Yes the left just needed a bit more weight to balance out.

    Default Not a problem...

    All wheels rim/tires are not the same and the mounting process can affect the balance as well. If mounted properly they should be close but if not it will differ one from the other. New tires are marked with colored circles which should line up with the valve stem..

    Be happy that is all yours had. I have seen factory new Kendas that needed 20+ weights to balance! Truly awful tires.

    My new kumho ecsta ast only took 1 little square weight. My rear kenda had at least 8. There were 2 rows of weights.
