Can you stack wheel weights?
You should never stack any weight on another weight, they should all be stuck to the rim as centered as possible. Whoever did this should be retrained or fired for laziness/incompetence. If the tire requires that many weights to balance then you should rotate the tire on the wheel and attempt to rebalance.
How do you calculate tire size?
You can use our tire size calculator to find the tire size, or you can use a few formulas. sidewall = section width × (60 ÷ 100) diameter = (sidewall × 2) + rim diameter. Thus, the wheel diameter is equal to the section width in inches times the aspect ratio divided by one hundred, times two, plus the rim diameter.
