Thanks Bobbins, that's massively helpful

Also - have a look at the Trax Professional range of wheel weights as they claim to be only 4.2mm high : https://www.youngautomotivedirect.co.uk ... ofessional
And Trax Premium at only 2.8mm high (allegedly !) https://www.youngautomotivedirect.co.uk ... m/620C-040

Trax Premium available in small quantities from eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Trax-Premium ... 3966105751

Ive got new tyres being fitted next week and have ordered the 2.2mm Trax Stick on weights from the bay. The current weights fitted are 3.76 including adhesive strip and just scrape the brake caliper when fiited in the position you describe. Really hoping these Trax weights are the answer!

Will let you know how I get on....

Weights have arrived 2.27mm including tape!

Glad you got them in the end. Hope they were worth the weight

So, new tyres fitted today and slim weights used. Success! No more visible weights and beautiful balanced wheels!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've never had any weights put on the rims for alloys on my C5s or Xantias / XMx (granted all comparatively modern vehicles). Fitters I go to use the stick on weights and these are put on the inside of the wheel so are not seen and are in the central 'hollow' part of the wheel.

I haven't had any weights at all on mine for several years now, partly due to the place that fits them can't balance Citroen wheels but more because the Sailun tyres have never needed balancing - unlike all the others that I have bought previously.
