Use them, love them. The only negative thing I have heard is that tire installers hate them when dismounting tires as them tend to make a mess. But too bad for them.

I don't have weights on either of my wheels. An old timer told me with solid mag wheels it wasn't needed so I removed them to test it out since they look like **** on chrome. No issues what so ever since at any speed or any excessive wear. What good is balancing going to do when the roads are shitty anyway lol

Thats ok man, thats what I'm looking for. People who have actually used this product. I think in your case it may be a "not the right thing for your application" type of situation. I will always listen to a negative review that doesn't totaly slam the product. You're not trashing the company, you did a very good job of explaining why it didn't work for you, and other information that you have gathered about this product. Thank you for your input and passing your experience on. Ride safe man!!
