Balancing wheels with weights?

Can the weights not be put on the inside of the wheels instead of the outside?

Your adv " Billy Bob Shop" probably wont, but most shops that deal with high end rims do.... Or you can check with your local parts store, most keep them in stock in the MR Gasket section....
