One of my wheel weights fell off, luckily it was in my driveway, so I have it.
What should I use to stick it back on? (When I search online it just comes up with new weights)
Thanks.

Double sided foam tape.
Do you know exactly where it came off of?

Yes, there is still some residue on the wheel.

As Harry said, either that or just pop back to your local tyre place and get them to pop another weight on?

I tend to put some alu tape over the top of wheel weights to help avoid them becoming unstuck. Not failed for me yet and the same thing is used on a Formula Renault single seater that I work on, again yet to fail.

Alex is right, MSA regs for some circuit classes now as well. Also I write on the wheel/tyre the amount of weight added in its position. Should you lose a weight, you can stick it straight back on again.
