Weights on the Del's front wheels?
#1
This is a random question. But do the DeLoreans have weights on the front wheels?

As far as I know I thought the only weights that were put on wheels was the balance them when a new tyre is fitted. However, a member on another forum I'm on is claiming that weights were added to counter balance the weight of the engine? Surely that's just wrong?

Counter balance the weight of the engine??? Oh ...so i am missing engine size weights on my front wheels then ?? Smile Smile

Weights are put on wheels to balance them and prevent vibration so yes normally with a new tyre but with gradual tyre wear they could need doing again....

Ha Ha :lol: :lol:

You could always top up your washer bottle to add weight at the front, and remember to keep your ashtray empty at the rear of your console! :wink:
