Hello guys;

For guys with black wheels, do dealers put in matching black wheel weights or whatever they have laying around? Getting new tires mounted soon and I was hoping dealers will stick on black weights (my OCD).


Thanks.

I don't think dealership will have color coded wheel weights????

that's what i figured. i'll be purchasing a set of Hofmann wheel weights recommends by STG

Oh, and hand-carry into the dealership? Good idea.

A black Sharpie won't work? Or, wipe the weights off with some denatured alcohol, mask off barrel with a little painter's tape, hit it with a blast of rattle can spray paint?

OKB

paint the weights black before you put them on

My dealer mounts black wheel weights on my black wheels.

For what its worth, my dealer used black wheel weights when they mounted tires on the satin black wheels on my 981. I assume that they must have had them in stock, because my car was not in the shop long when it was done.

I buy black wheel weights from Summit Racing and bring them in with me.
