Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

Not looked into it poperly, but could be handy, imagine having an on going balancing system for the wheels, how many of you have had their wheels out of balance, thinking you have lost the weights when off roading or laning.

Only to find out it was clumps of mud stuck to the inside of the wheels. It happened to me last month, I thought it was the wheel bearing come loose or wheel nuts. Could not do over 50, even stopped to check it out. Dont know if it would counter act that much off set but would help I suppose
