Got brand new GB 10x6 wheels with yoko A008 tyres. I've fitted the 7.5 conversion kit snd when I fitted the front wheels the weights catch the caliper.
The weights are stuck on the inside of the rim obviously inline with the caliper.
If I go to a tyre shop and explain the weights would need moving more inwards is this something that can be easily sorted?

Yes, they just need to use a different way of balancing the wheels. Will involve weights towards the inner and outer edges.

Been to tyre shop. They have a machine and can set the machine so it uses a single weight, in the centre lone of the wheel as opposed to one weight inside and another on the outside
