Has anyone noticed the percentage of stick on wheel weights has gone up in a bucket of tire shop weights ? I'm getting many more now than in the recent past .

Yeah, I have. More factory cars have fancy wheels now, and the custom wheel market is really booming. I'm taking this as a good sign, as I'm finding a lower percentage of Zinc and Iron in the stisk-ons.

I have too but they are mostly Fe. It is nice to pull out those big thick strips of lead once in a while though.

Got my firs bucket of ww a couple of weeks ago. Out of 75 pounds, about 24 were stick on lead. 8 pounds coww, the rest steel (very few zinc).
