Hi. I've just had 4 new tyres fitted. Any idea why 3 of the new tyres needed balancing weights whereas the originals had none. The original tyres were the ones fitted in Brazil

I would say possibly it depends on how far off aligned each tyre was/is; when I had a puncture recently, the stick-on weights on the inside had to be changed from what they originally were to what seemed to be required with the tyre having been mended.
