Yeh that's pretty normal. My new Enkei RPF1's had wheel weights fitted to them and so did the 949 Racing 6UL wheels just not as many as yours
I have just been sold a set of what are supposed to be 'Brand new' rims, Superlites. First set of 'new' rims I've ever bought. Got tyres fitted up yesterday and was shocked at the amount of weights that were needed to balance the rims.... See the pics..... I dont even have nearly this many on the old few set of wheels I have...
Is this not right for supposed 'New wheels'?
Cheers

Actually it's the tyres that are the problem not the rims.
Cast alloy circles = pretty perfect
Moulded rubber round things = Lots of variation !
I have had these tyres fitted to other wheels before, never been a problem before....

Would be damn interesting to strip the tyres & weights and to balance just the mags - Scratching my head on this one !
ask your tyre fitter to rotate the tyre on the rim , they may balance up better if rotated
Yeah that 1st one shouldn't need THAT many, but I have seen worse..on a brand new CE28N...on the outside lip
As kepanno said, try rotating tyre.
definitely rotate the tyre

its a cast hoop, cast has so many variables in weight, that seems a little bit extreme, but if they are second hand tyres, i wouldnt stress too much, strip and balance bare rims or rotate tyres would be the go
Brand new tyres....
