Front wheel weight fell off...long term issues ?
I was wiping my wheels down today and noticed what appears to be possibly one or more wheel weights missing from my rt front wheel, which I had replaced by a sublet operation the dealer uses. due to a too close encounter with a curb 4 months back. Not sure how many were installed for starters but there is a somewhat clean area w/some sort of rubbery adhesive behind the one remaining weight. I did not feel any vibration from the wheel( course the roads here in WA leave little to be desired and makes it hard to determine) I have slight pull to right ,but I think it is the lay of the road. TP is 33. Any other symptoms I should notice and is this some thing that can wait ? Worried about potential damage that may have occured or will occur Thanks

it wont cause uneven wear, it will cause the steering wheel to shake if it is the front wheel or you will feel it vibrate in the seat if it is a back wheel.

Gosh, John... When I read the title of your post, I completely missed the word "weight!"
I just read, "Front wheel fell off... long term issues?"
I clicked in just to see what the "short term issues" had been!!!
Man, I need a vacation!
