tire balance

anyone else have unusually heavy weight on one specific tire on their car? i have half ounce weights all around, except for the front passenger tire which is 2.5 ounces. WTF?

have them "ride match" balance it...its where they use a balancer that measures "road force" on the tire and it tells them to turn the tire on the wheel, it tells them were to turn it more imporantly...you might just have a bent wheel or bad tire, what brand and size?
