The rear wheels' tab were gone or were probably removed. Don't have any vibrations or issues in the back. I had a use a crow bar everytime I had to remove the wheels. I guess I'll find out soon about the front. Would be a good reason to go after those 19" rims I've been dreaming of.
Those sound like the stick on wheel weights used in balancing.
