Where to purchase wheel balancing weights?
I recently started installing my own tires using a No-Mar tire changer. Which manufacturer of wheel weights do people seem to use or recommend? I've purchased the HD black (5 gram) wheel weights, part number (95594-84A) from the dealer, but they seem to be slightly different from the wheel weights I recently removed from the rim on my front tire that was balanced by an independent shop. Those wheel weights looked to be wrapped in a rubber coating and seemed like they would work better wrapped around the center of the rim than the HD ones. I am not interested in using Dyna Beads. Basically, I was looking to find a source for these rubber coated balancing weights.

Here's a link I found: http://www.alltiresupply.com/c-Wheel_Weights.html
Maybe something there you can use.

That's why my advice was to try them. If they work in the tubes in my RKC, they'll balance anything.

Not really interested in trying Dyna Beads. I've read the various articles and forum posts on the Internet and I'm not convinced. From what I read, they don't work at low speeds and they don't seem to work at high speeds (can't find any race teams using them). I just want to do a simple old fashion static balance.
