    That makes sense. Do you think they have different size weights or a different place
    To
    Put them so it doesn't do it? Or should I get a little spacer plate?

    I had this problem as well with my American Racing rims because the weights go on the inside of the wheel. I took a grinder to my calipers and took a little off and that stopped it. The next time I had my tires re-balanced I told them to space the weights so they wouldn't make contact with the caliper.

    Problem fixed. It's was the balance weights. They just repositioned them. Thank you
