proper wheel weights and TPMS

Does anyone know if there is an application guide specific to ford factory wheels that lets you know the proper wheel weight style for your rim? I have had wheel weights flying off left and right and now since I ordered new tires I want to have the right ones installed when these tires get balanced and installed. Also, anyone know if the TPMS on the 2008 Ford F250 Super Duty is attached to the valve stem or if it is banded?

Thanks,

Jim

Probably a no-no with TPMS....but have you thought about using Dyna beads? In theory, they shouldn't ever touch the wheels...only the tire. I have them and love them (no TPMS for me though).
