Wheel balancing weights are harder to cast as they are not pure lead (well, most aren't), but the alloy that is added to them (3% antimony , I read somewhere if anyone cares) is there to make the lead a bit harder so it doesn't bend quite so easily. This makes weights that are a bit more robust and the slots wont close up if (when) you drop them.
If anyone has any casting tips I would like to hear them as my results so far have been a bit hit and miss.
