As a side note on wheel weights. I was at a tire balancer this morning. I
asked about the lead weights. He said they had been phasing lead
replacements in for the past year. He showed me one that he thought was zink
and
compared it to a lead weight. The zink apparently isn't as heavy because the
1oz.
zink was about 3 times the size of the 1oz. lead.
He said the instructions on the boxes of both weights tell the installer to
wash their hands every time they handle either of the weights. I asked how
many of the installer do. His answer, "None!" I'm not so sure I'd want to
handle a few hundred lead weights every day with no gloves!
