Default Correct wheel weighting

On some second hand rims i just bought: volk ce 28 n's in 17", i just checked the weighting and they are all different, one rim has 8 small weights, two have 4 and one has 3.

How does it come stock? Why would they be so different on each rim?

Any help would be appreciated.

Cause the person that mounted the tires is a knuckle head.

ase you talking about the little weights they put on when they mount and balance them?

it's normal not to have the same weights. they put however many weights or whatever weight weights they need to get it balanced.

The weights balance the wheels and tires, neither of which (especially the tires) will perfectly balanced when purchased.
