ABSTRACT:
A wheel weight system adds traction to the drive wheels of off-road motor vehicles. The wheel weight system comprises at least two adapters that are mounted to a drive wheel. Studs are threaded into free ends of the adapters. Holes in a wheel weight are slipped over the studs. Nuts on the free ends of the studs attach the wheel weight in place. The adapters may be separate pieces that are removeably mounted to the drive wheel. Those adapters can remain more or less permanently on the drive wheel, if desired, even after the wheel weight and studs are removed from the adapters. Alternately, the adapters may be welded or cast integral with the drive wheel.
