Rasta7 Posted April 17 Share Posted April 17 Just about to get my local tyre fitters to put some new ZZS tyres onto some new 13" mini lites. Is there anything I need to make them aware of, ie where to put the balance weights, type of valve etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there anything I need to make them aware of, ie where to put the balance weights, type of valve etc.? The main thing is not to put balance weights close to the inside edge of the rear wheel barrel if your wheel width is such that the deDion ears are inside the wheel. 8" wide wheels certainly have the problem. I normally put 40mm or so wide painters tape around the inside of the barrel in that area with "no weights here" written on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasta7 Posted April 17 Author Share Posted April 17 Probably should have pointed out their 13"x6" wheels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be OK then - weights should be able to go wherever… as above, it’s on 8” wheels that the weights can foul the DingDiog ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
