Important note:
When using any of the described methods of balancing aluminium rims, the vehicle or rim manufacturers' specifications and the release by the Technical Inspection Agencies concerning the balance weights to be used, should be strictly adhered to. The use of incorrect balance weights can reduce the freewheel of brakes or damage the track rod or the track rod end.

1. Balancing using clip-on weights for both planes. This method requires the least mass for balancing. This method is applied by most of the automobile manufacturers.

3. Both adhesive weights are applied to the interior side in the rim nave.
4. The exterior balance plane is transferred to the inside and the adhesive weight is applied to the rim nave within the brake disc area. A clip-on weight with integral or separate clip is applied to the inner rim flange.
5. An adhesive weight is used on the outer rim. It is applied to the outermost position. A clip-on weight with integral or separate clip is applied to the inner rim flange.
6. A clip-on weight with integral or separate clip is applied to the outer rim flange. An adhesive weight is used on the inner rim. The weight is applied to the outermost position in the rim nave.
