Wheel weights Maximum???

[MercerLake]

What is the maximum number of wheel weights that can legally be used to balance a tire? My new 2015 ST has 4 quarter ounce weights on one front wheel, and the other wheel has 20 quarter ounce weights:yikes:. No noticeable vibration so it must be balanced within some sort of a specification. But 20 seems excessive to me. Of course it is a KENDA marvel tire from the factorynojoke. Is there an allowed maximum number?? Thanks for any answers.

Wow, I do believe that you are the winner! I've seen as many as 14 on one Spyder wheel but never 20. :yikes: Sorry, I have no idea if there is a mandated maximum though.

Roadforce balance

Get the tires rebalanced by a tire shop with a Hunter roadforce balancing machine. The heavy spot on the rim and tire need tobe properly matched and aligned on the wheel. I had my tires roadforce balanced and have no weights on one side & half an ounce on the other.
Hope this helps.

Does sound like a lot:dontknow: guess you could visit another shop & ask them for second opinion. (Basically remount & balance see if they get same result) costly tho. & or get some ride on
http://www.ride-on.com & see if that will help your shop on balance :sour:opcorn: Hopefully it is just a rookie tech mistake or something simple, not the actual tire is that out of whack.
