Default Brass Rotor weight

So I order the brass rotor weights but I can't figure out how to get them mounted on my front knuckles? There doesn't seem to be any mounting point. Can anyone help?

So to run the wheel weights you have to have alum hubs and knuckles? That's kinda dumb

Yes, I agree 100%...should fit the stock parts. I'd totally buy them, but not shelling out another $70 for the aluminum goodies just to mount them.

Does specify on the product page pretty clearly that it only fits certain parts.

Yeah. I made the mistake before ordering. I was planning on ordering the aluminum parts anyways, this just sped up the process.

Seems like they could be made to fit, drill a hole or whatever in the plastic knuckles and mount them.

Oh well, you know you'll buy the aluminum chubs and knuckles anyways...keep the plastic for spares or help a friend.

You techincally only need the knuckle for the mount. I run them on mine with plastic chubs only because when I ordered they were out of stock. I don't think the plastic one has the same lip on it that the rotor slides onto, so I think its next to impossible to get them onto there.

So far they have worked well for me.
