Man, looks like they had to stack the weights on that rear wheel. Wonder if that is a problem with wheel balance, or the tires?
No rubbing at all. Yeah, idk what's up with them having to use so many weights on the one wheel. I'll take a look at the rest of them tomorrow and see how they did. I'm guessing it's just the tire, and they didn't bother trying to seat and balance it in a different position.

Decided to run out there tonight and look:

Front Driver Side: 8 weights @ 1/4oz = 2oz
Rear Drive Side: 13 weights @ 1/4oz = 3.25oz
Front Passenger Side: 11 weights @ 1/4oz = 2.75oz
Rear Passenger Side: 19 weights @ 1/4oz = 4.75oz

So, it doesn't seem too bad other than that one wheel. The old set seemed to have a similar amount of weights on them. Thankfully, the shop I go to seems to have glued them on there very well. Hopefully, they won't fly off too soon. haha
