I believe the small weights were 30 lbs and the larger weights were 45 lbs

Pie Weights were made in two sizes - 30# and the HD 45#. SEE CHARTS... Note HD not recommended for use on 600 models. Axle issue? The 2-PC Front Weights for 16 wheels were 50# each, 100# per side, 200# toal front end. Center Discs made for 28 wheels and hold 12 segments. You can put how many pie pieces you want - 4 6 8 10 12. Mounting either fronts or rears is a job. If you need to pull a wheel off for say a flat tire, you're in for another job. I advise to forget pie weights and fill tires with Beet Juice (RIM GUARD) for ballast. I put some in my 8Ns when it first came out in the mid-late 90's and it's still in, never any issues. Well worth the investment. No hassles. I've swapped around my wheels/tires too from my loaded work tires to my non-loaded show tires.

Two basic designs, so-called light and heavy, were made but both light and heavy sets were made in multiple styles, depending upon production time and foundry.

The so-called heavy sets were nominally 45 Lbs. per segment while the so-called light sets were nominally 30 Lbs. per segment.

That said, it is entirely possible that one or more of the so-called light sets may well have weighed 34 Lbs., nominally.

Mounting plates are not all the same either. I think I have or had about 4 different styles and weights of mounting plates. I believe there may also be a slightly different heavy weight for the spin out rear wheels?
