Looks like Paragon Corvette sells the Micro wheel weights but they don’t have the “Bat Wings”. Would they be considered not correct for first Gen Camaro’s?

Default Wheel weights

Are the weights only on the inside? And in half ounce increments? .5 , 1.00,1.50,2.00, 2.5.What do they stop at ??

Thanks,

Bob, Micro tire weights without wings are not correct. I've found plenty of original weights on old wheels and at flea markets. And new correct ones can be found at a decent price when taking time to source.

Thanks Chick! EBay pricing on these are ridiculous. Another thing to add to the Spring Carlisle list. 😬

I have a bunch of used correct ones that I can probably help you with Bob!
Dave, the largest one's I have are 2.75 ounces and they are over 5" in length so that 3.0 must be a whopper.
