So what have you guys seen when buying new drums? Weights or none?
Lets ignore other sources of vibrations in this thread.

I have never seen balancing weights, as they should be forged balanced. But non-OEM brake stuff is notorious for being out of true and this pertains to both the drums and rotors.
