It’s not just BFGs, once you start moving heavy tires around it generally requires more weight to balance out. I think I got about 6lbs of weights on my spare…

Alright an update. Two balanced out perfectly without what Id consider excessive weight. Two took more and I got them within an oz without continuously chasing weights. Now the bad news I went to install them today and fronts are great but the inside weights hit the rear calipers. There is hardly any room between the wheel and caliper on the rear. I had to rip off the weights just to get them on. I ordered some low profile weights to see if they will fit if not I dont know what Ill do, I guess try beads

Order 1 oz weights, I have 7 mm of clearance or so and the 1 oz are 6mm. Just had to do this myself today

The ones I used were 1/2 oz and they are already 6mm and hitting. I ordered 1/2 oz low profile ones that are only 3mm
