I sold balance weights for a living once. Out of my hundreds of customers there was only one who bought proper high quality coated Dionysis Hoffman (now Hoffman powerweight) individual stick on and knock on weights. All the others just wanted the cheapest rubbish they could get. The arrival of internet based sellers resulted in a tidal wave of rubbish from china.
The customer had been fairly high up in one of the motoring organisations and really knew his stuff unlike a fair sized minority of the tyre trade.
