Curt: Those U shaped devices are placed one on each side of wheel, in such a way the bolts go through the wheel, one on each side of the wedge. You'll notice the U are flat on one side and recessed about 1/4 on the other. If your wedges are well recessed in the wheel, place the flat side to the wheel. From your photo that looks to be the case. The recessed side is in case the wedges are flush with or protruding a bit passed flat side of wheel.

When you loosen the wedge bolt it will force one wedge out, and loose. What you are trying to achive here is place the U shaped device so the loose wedge cant come out beyond flush with side of wheel. That in turn will force the other wedge to loosen.

It was a great system, just too many folks didn't understand it and didn't bother to ask or consult the manual.

What you might try with those wheel weights is remove two of the bolts, put long pieces of round bar in place of bolts, then remove the other two bolts, replace them with round bar, then slide the wheel weights in, and away from the wheel. I can see you'll likely have to remove rim from wheel to make working room.
