Default balancing pin drive Trigo wheels

I have a new set of Trigo wheels and tires (8 inch X15 and 10 inch x 15). Wheels and tires were shipped with wheel weights on the outside.(face of the wheel).I thought I would be clever and have the weights placed on the inside of the wheel via taped weights. Didn't work on the front wheels (little offset) Didgital spin balancer read the taped weights as though they were on the insidelip of wheel. Front wheels have virtually a neutrol offset Any ideas. Lead weights on the face of the wheel spoils the look and with dissimilar metals corrosion will soon start. On my second or third set of tires I will have corrosion tracks all around the wheel. I know they make plastic coated weights and thatcures the corrosion problem but not the ugly. I gave up and didn't even try to convert the weights on the back wheels. What do I do?
