After replacing tyres I have been left with the sticky foam stuff where the old balance weights used to be. Any advice on what to use to clean these off?

WD40 is worth a go, if not a wheel cleaning agent should remove it, or white spirit,

Or a medical product called Zoff - designed to removed plaster adhesive etc

Wooden scrapper.
As with most glues, if you warm them they will release. then some Panel Wipe or similar spirit to remove residue.

Hi all
White Spirit will do the job of removing glue residue of most surfaces without harming them.
