General wheel weights

[puntoboii]

Hey all as some may no ive fitted some sporting alloys i did notice some of the weights had fallen of on one side just took it to pick up the gfs poorly son and noticed that im steering slightly to the right can it be lack of the weights? Wanna find out beforehand before getting them balanced and for it not to be the issue i haven't touched anything suspension related just removal of old and fitting of new alloys

Wheel weights wouldn't cause it to pull to one side. Could be tramlining or following the camber of the road more cos you have bigger wheels and low profile tyres now

could any of the new wheels be buckled or incorrect tyre pressure?

they look straight no buckles that i can ill give pressures a check tomorrow what's normal pressure? Normally stick 32psi in

This website says 37 psi front and 33 rear for 205/45/17R's

The handbook says 2.4 bar in front equating to 34.8 psi and 2.2 bar in the rear equating to 31.9 psi for medium load.

Hope this helps mate
