Balancing Special MAG
Wheels (Adhesive
Weights)
If standard clip weights are to be used, balance as a
“standard” wheel. The mag button is used when some
specialty wheels are to be balanced or when adhesive
weights are required (i.e., hidden weight method).
Note: Some specialty wheels do not require the hid-
den weight method of balancing. See example 2. If
adhesive weights must be used, follow these instruc-
tions.
See examples 1, 2 and 3 and select how weights will
be applied.
Set distance gauge, wheel width, and wheel diameter
as indicated in the proper example.
Lower hood and push appropriate button.
Read weight amount and locate position as with a
“standard” wheel.
Raise hood. Apply required weights.
Lower hood. Push appropriate button and check
weight application.
Note: Since hiding adhesive weights involves approx-
imations to actual wheel width and wheel diameter,
additional spins may be required. Simply respin and
apply weights as called for.
Be sure wheel surfaces are clean as per
adhesive weight manufacturer’s recommen-
dations. Apply weight securely, failure to do
so may cause weights to come loose result-
ing in serious personal injury.

not used for this method
of balancing.
