Wheel Weights
 
Hey guys, fairly new to the micro world. Gotta question about wheel weights. What seems the be the most popular? I've seen some guys stick weights to their axles, some use the split weights wrapped around the rim, some who take the foams out and run BBs in each wheel (best for lowest center of gravity, I suppose), and I haven't seen it used, but I found someone on eBay who had what looked like washers stuffed behind the beadlock ring on the back side of the wheel. Who likes what, and for what reasons?

Re: Wheel Weights
 
I have two sets of wheels where I run weights. One set is fitted with the losi brass split weights and the other set is filled with BBs. I like the BBs because I can add or remove weight as I desire and they can go into any wheel I choose (I dont think you can with the losi split weights because they are a fixed diameter).

Others also use solder and coil the wire around the rim.
