Same wieghts used on my XD rims to balance them. A friend of mine with a SRT has the same setup. After all who would want that on the outside of thier nice new expensive rim.

Nice looking truck. Yes most aftermarket rims use stick on wheel weight so as not to have the clamp on ones on the outside edge of the rim.

There are products out there that you can put into the tires that will balance as you drive.

Thanks for the info. Well driving it around my steering wheel is slightly to the left when driving straight and I get some pretty good vibrations around 60mph. Guess I need some more weights on one of those wheels.

Yeah, that's the downside to heavy mud tires! lol If it bothers you, check into that balancing "sand".

Do any of you have problems with the stability/traction control firing when you turn? I have an 09 screw with 6 inch BDS lift and 37 inch tires

OMG, it is my truck (at least same color and cab configuration )

I want to lift my truck soon, I like the DC2 rims. Those tires are nice!
