The welded steel weights on the 3/4 ton Dodge wheels (I think supplied by Budd) seem to be a standard weight in a standard position to compensate for the valve stem cutout. I suspect they were not individually balanced though I have not compared wheels to confirm this. It would be an oddity if they were as I don't know of ex factory weights on Jeep or GMC/Stude wheels etc.
