I run a full pound in each of my front tires, So 6 oz is nothing.

Adding wheel weight is probably the single best mode I have done yet! I have 8oz in mine and it seams to be holding up fine. I'm sure it could be a bit better to if I trimmed the foam a bit. I have some HB rovers on the way there a bit bigger so maybe ill add a full pound like 1\4elliptic toy

Lead sticky weights are cheap, and you can always add more or take some off. I'm running 8 oz of steel weight front and rear but haven't tested it yet cause the wheather

the weights in the front like 6oz... no problem when you have more than a pound up there then you are pushing it.... they can snap the knuckles....
