What are the key components of an effective adhesive wheel weight?

Density - When it comes to adhesive wheel weights, the higher the density, the better. When you lower the material’s density, you also lower the balancing efficiency.

Wheel weights are for adjusting the weight distribution of the wheel/tire combination ,so it is properly balanced. That’s what wheel balancing is all about.
There is no absolute”which is better”,fewer weights or more weights?” There is only”is my wheel/tire balanced?”If it takes a huge amount of weight to balance it ,that maybe a sing that there is a problem with the wheel.

Some tire shops will just not put counter-weights on the outside and try very hard to balance wheels from inside only. Actually, all wheels and tire combo have to be balanced or you’ll have vibration. What cause the wheel vibration? Wheel the tire and wheel are made they are not perfectly balanced. So certain area of the wheel weight more so when you are driving the unbalance weight causer the vibration. The weight is added to the lighter side of the wheel to balance it out.

Unbalanced wheel is most noticable at around 1-mph and 60mph .
