Just buy some balance beads (preferably ceramic ones) and never worry about wheel balancing again. No need for any wheel weights with them in

Even after collecting these bits of tree stump in the tyre bead and adding a lot of off-balance weight there was no issues at motorway speeds:

This is why I recommend the ceramic ones. No.1 they are much bigger and cant get stuck in the valve, No.2 is they wear the tyre better, No.3 they are less prone to clumping up when wet than the plastic ones and No. 4 they just work proplerly. I think it is mostly because they are much heavier/bigger than the plastic ones that they work so well+1 on the beads they work
Only down side i have with the beads they can stick the valve open
If you like to air down for off roading I have had this happen twice
so going for weights this time round
ATS euro master and National tyres should have the ability to balance using finger plates
These bolt the wheels to the machine making them stud centric
