I have a set of weld rts's for my 07 gt500.
Has 275/60/15 Et pro tires, I got them balanced put them on the car and the wheel weights were hitting the caliper brackets. I posted on face book about it and everyone asked me why I even balanced then In the first place? Apparently nobody balances them. So I ripped the weights off and took it for a ride and you can def feel the vibration as expected. Just wanted to get everyone's inout on this. Do you guys balanced the 15x10 rear wheels ? What are my options lol

You can try turning the tire on the rim in small increments, I have done this in the past to get a tire balanced Sith less weight.

Sometimes I ended up needing no weights.

I didn't balance mine. I'm sure there is a small vibration in the seat but not enough to concern me.

I'm basically asking if other have ran into this problem or if they got away with out balancing the wheels. I know for fronts it's a must. But I am going to try some thinner wheel weights
