There shouldn't be a problem at all with using the tape-a-weights on a wheel that is designed to take the regular hammer-ons. But there is a greater danger of them falling off easier. It comes down to the skill-level and care that the guy performing the task has. It is a bit more of a involved process for balancing as well and a lot of guys really hate doing it. I don't mind at all, though. I've done enough of them to get it done relatively quickly and easily while remaining effective.... and making sure the weights stay on.
Results will vary from place to place depending on equipment and the level of skill and care their employees possess. Just the unfortunate truth about the business. It is an entry-level job that doesn't pay the greatest.. and it does tend to attract some, how to put this delicately, people of less intelligence or care.. Fortunately, where I work is in a big college town. Half the employees are rather intelligent college kids who still give a **** about getting things done right. They're just working there for a few bucks. Not even necessary to them, but they want to do it. It's nice to work with competent and intelligible types in an otherwise low-brow job.
