its a tire weight for balancing tires, the rusty clip would get wedged between the tire and rim.

I think in terms of sheer value, your first post outdoes mine! So congratulations. Keep at it. You're gonna love this!

Yup, Excel is the company who made the weight, and the 3 means 3 ounces. They're used almost exclusively on steel wheels and clip onto the edge of the rim. If you hunt along roadways, curb strips, or driveways, you'll find a lot of them.
