Re: Avoiding wheel damage from weights?

Find a shop with a Hunter GSP9700. Hunter's web page will help you find 
one - or a local rep that can point you to one. I believe these machines run 
upwards of $6k, so not everyone's gonna have one.
These machines are the nuts for balancing as far as getting the job done 
right - and the tech can use tape weights _inside_ of the spokes the wheel. 
So not only do your wheels look great, they are balanced perfectly. Hunter's 
web page has lots of info on it, or it did last fall.
No affiliation with Hunter. Good
luck...
=====================================================
The GSP9700 is indeed an excellent wheel balancer.  Suggested retail price
for the basic machine is $12,150.  Other Hunter balancers can be used for
proper inside weight placements....the Hunter machine allows the user to
road test the tire (under load) to determine and correct for belt issues
and wheel runout.  SD
