Does anyone know if they will stop making wheel weights out of lead, and if they do completely when will it be?

Some of them are Zinc now, I would not be surprised if they someday faze out lead entirely.

For now when availability of lead weights will end depends on the state.

Most of the non-lead one's I've seen have been zinc.

This site covers pretty much every question one should have on the subject: http://www.leadfreewheels.org/
