Craigar45 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Are you kidding me? "13% of wheel weights fall off annually, crunching under the weight of other vehicles and washing into sewers or entering landfills after streets are cleaned" Anyone ever see lead get "crunched"? I see mashed wheel weights all the time, but they sure dont turn to dust. Thank god we have good people like these to protect us from "crunched" wheel weights. How silly.

boz1911 Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 Being in the automotive business, I can say very few wheel weights fall off. All the old ones are picked up by a recycler. And besides I have always warned people not to eat them or mix them with their drinks........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajarrel Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 It never ceases to amaze me how many stories are written that either do no research at all or completely ignore the truth because it doesn't line up with thier kneejerk ideas. fwiw dj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
