Spare Tire Wheel Weights

Re: Spare Tire Wheel Weights

... of weights I recovered, only 6 "OEM" weights were included. This leaves me to believe that there were a very small quantity of these manufacturers weights used. And/or they were much older, perhaps in the late fifties early sixties...

Kevin,

The two examples of the use of OEM wheel weights that I know of were on original, 1966 spare tires. I've not seen any examples from the 50s or earlier 60s. I assume OEM weights were made by one of the five wheel weight suppliers that GM is thought to have used during the C2 era, and my guess would be Salmon or Wheel Weight Inc., neither of which have I been able to pin down in terms of the embossed logos they used.

... I've advertised my weights for sale, several times here and the Driveline, just not lately......

Kevin,

Perhaps you'd like to check with a DB moderator, but it is my understanding that the Discussion Board is not the place to advertise items that one is selling. Such solicitations should only be done by PM or e-mail.
