For those that mount and balance your own tires, where are you buying the stick-on weights from? I used to get them from Patchboy by the box (like 10 lbs each), but it appears that most suppliers have switched to the steel (instead of lead) and they are low profile, which in turn makes them wider. On some wheels it doesn't matter, but others with a narrow lip, they end up hanging off and not really fitting. So I am looking for some narrow (don't care if they are lead or steel) weights in large quantities. I don't want to buy them 1 or 5 strips at a time if I can help it since I change about 75-100 tires a year. Thanks

Not my a$$, but my rear wheel! Had a new PR2 mounted up on my 5 spoke rear wheel at Cycle Gear yesterday and they used almost an entire strip of the stickon weights! I have never had more than 3-5 of the 1/4 oz weights added to this wheel. Does this seem unusual?
