If a tire is properly dynamic balanced there may be weights on both the inside and outside.
Often the weights on the inside will not be in the same location as the outside. That is how the dynamic balance is achieved.

I am not going to do the math, but the Drum needing 5.5 oz would be less it the weights were at the outer circumference of the tire... Same goes for the tire to a lesser extent... But the math really isn't that critical with the beads. Any extra beads will distribute themselves evenly around the tire.

If we’re concerned about the drum being out of balance....why not use “balance beads”? That should take care of that issue....unless it’s “very” badly out of balance! memtb
Not a believer in those, they need to reorient themselves every time the speed drops to a certain point. I asked the believers this question a long time ago: How many ounces of beads would you add to a tire that is 4 ounces out of balance with a brake drum that is 5.5 ounces out? Never got an answer. This is a real situation that I experienced. I knew the heavy spots on both and mounted with them opposed, so only 1.5 ounces of weight were required. For the bead fans, please calculate the amount needed (hint: it would be between 2 and 14 ounces).

You want me to take a pic of the inside?
