If that is the right price and you wanted to run different weights in the front and rear, you would have to buy both sets right? Thats $110.

Ummmm are they for real?

If so that is by far the funniest thing I have seen in a really long time

[gigercreeper]

ya real funny i thought i migh be able to save some money nd get these rims till i looked into it. i still like the rims though. venom dosent sell a combo with both wieght options so you can get both for and rear for 59.99? that would b nice

You could mold a lead crawler for that price!

That is the dumbest thing I have ever seen.

[kikcaffine]

Yeah when I saw that, I pretty much decided at that point I didnt want the truck, so I canceled the order on it.

[gigercreeper]

are the wieght lead? or somethin else. i know that there is this stuff that has a higher wieght to mass ratio then lead not shure the name i know it starts with an m

[sniders1975]

Dont cancel the order the truck is a great crawler & its preety well built its brand new things will pan out in time!

[dezfan]

WOW!

$50.00 + bucks for wheel weights?

$10.00 maybe.

[Stevek]

the rims allow you to make a good set of weights due to the tapped holes around the rim.....alot more precise than taping wheel weights, I'm not buying the wheel weights but i will be making my own, utilizing these holes for a better balanced rim

[non ya]

yup buy lead in chunk,mold to size and weight,drill a hole and mount. much cheaper than $60 lol.

[gigercreeper]

but u need a sample to make the mold.

[lukedaemon]

Hmmm..... looks like their website is jacked right now. Have to check later.

$50 for wheel weights seems a bit pricey.

This isn't racing, our wheels are spinning at relatively slow RPM's. It is very easy to "balance" your wieght placement with stick on weights. It isn't hardly worth the time get more complicated. If these weights were anywere near a reasonable price then the convience would be worth it.

You could wing it pretty easily, its just lead. But still unless you were going to make quite a bit it is hardly worth the extra effort over just using stick-on weight. Plus the weight is still inside the tire so its not like it is any more quick change than regular weight. All in all......................FAIL.

exactly if you not gonna mass produce it aint woth it though i do encourage some one to do it then you could sell them slightly cheeper and turn a profit
