Folks with the M&H Nostalgia Slick..

[jrgnd]

Are you running with them Unbalanced? I just got mine mounted today and balance. When they installed them on the truck, the weights would hit the calipers.

My calipers and rims are the same that VPRPWR and ZEX SRT-10 used.

Please let me know how did balance them...Thanks...

Yeah, balanced!

I agree with Patrick, get them balanced. That's a whole lot of tire (Mass) to be spinning at 120+ MPH without being balanced.

Since it's a drag wheel only, have them mount the weights at the very extreme edges of the wheels. They will be visible on the outside face, but who cares.

So take it to mechants and balance them with the normal weights?

 

[RedSrt007]

yeah, you can...I balanced mine w/ the stick weights and duck tape over them to keep them from flying off. The stick weights were placed on the lip away from the calipers

These are along the same lines, only they are an external unit (not inside the tire)...

You should tape them.
