Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know where to place the wheel weights on my kart rim?
A: Use a tire balancer to identify the heavy spot of your wheel assembly. Once identified, apply the weights to the inside of the rim directly opposite the heavy spot to achieve a neutral balance.
Q: Can these weights withstand the heat generated during a race?
A: Yes, these weights feature a high-tack, self-adhesive backing specifically designed to maintain a secure grip on the rim even when exposed to track heat and debris.
Q: Can I cut the strip to use smaller amounts of weight?
A: Absolutely. The strip is designed to be easily segmented, allowing you to use individual 1/2oz weights or smaller portions to fine-tune your balance without adding unnecessary mass.
Q: Should I clean the rim before applying the weights?
A: For the best results, clean the inner surface of the rim with a degreaser or brake cleaner to remove any oil, dirt, or rubber residue before applying the adhesive. This ensures a long-lasting bond.
