I don't have ABS due to my rear end so that's been gone for a while.

I had to use 15oz(yes,15 oz) on one of my rears, and 10oz on my other one. my 295/55/15 MT ET Street Radials were so out of round it was sick. 35lbs of road force from each tire, and zero runout on the wheels, which means i'm stuck with it lol. Under 20mph the car literally feels like it's bouncing from the rear. I had to get mini lead weights, and stack them 2 high and put them on the inner edge right where it starts to curve. That's the only way they wouldn't hit the calipers, and those were the only weights that "weighed enough" for the size. I paid $40 for a 4lb box through my parts department

wow and i thought using 5.75 oz on my rears were bad. i had to stack them up on the inside of the wheel so i know its going to hit the calipers, this blows

one wheel balanced good and the other balanced with about 4oz of weight, not too bad.

Mine have quite a bit of weight on them too. I picked them up last night from the tire shop. Will try to get some pics of them installed this weekend. It was too cold here last night to do anything .
