the weights are there to balance the tires... generally at low speed it has no problems, but at highway speeds you might have an issue... go to any local tire shop to have it fixed quick and ifs they are OEM( as if they are the stock ones from jeep) just go back to jeep to have it fixed

When i had my mazda Roadster you could tel if it was off by 1/4 oz.
But it was car ment for twisty roads and stuck like glue to the road.

Yes you really do want to get it fixed. But it will not kill you if it off for a bit.

When i was a tire jocky, we would rebalance our tires every oil change.
And that was every 3K miles and at least 1 or 2 tires needed adjustments.

Did they take the tire off and balance it? If not, they are full of crap. I have only run across a hand full of tires that didn't need weight to balance it.

Balancing a tire should be very cheap.

I get mine free for life where I bought them, but I think their board says $6-8.
