15" Prostar & Draglite people inside please. I posted this here because over in the wheel section most of the people a mainly interested in the "bling" wheels and only hard core guys are willing to grind the snot out of their calipers like I just spent my weekend doing. Anyway i wanted to know where you guys are having the adhedsive weights stuck on your front runners and if there's even enough room, just want to know what works best. TIA

Mine are balanced, crimp on weights inside and out... I got the sportsman front tires and they took alot more to balance than a radial IMO.
I tried stick on weights, but the calipers on my LT1 car took them right off.

Man I need to find me a deal on rims/tires. But anyways, I was just going to say, feel around and find a place to put them, and then pound on the weights with a hammer (The sticky ones) as long as they still stick, they are the same weight pounded as regular. But thats if you wanted to do stickies, I would just use hammer on on the back side of the rim. Good luck. 
When I ran prostars, I had the weights on the inside of the front runners. They were the stick on kind. Even though they came off, I couldn't tell a difference with them off or on!!!

lol. i am grinding my calipers tommorrow. i too have a 2002 ws6. i am planning on running my prostar xp's as street rims. my tires will be here tommorrow, and we'll do the grinding at the same time. im gonna take pics of before, during, and after. and then post pics of the whole thing.
i was told that sticky weights will work fine. and personally i think crimp on weights will work too. personally i would go with sticky weights!
yur car looks great with those wheels. i cant wait to see what mine will look like.
