Are you playing through the new Forza Horizon 5 DLC and wanting to find everything on the map. Well, one of the more important items to find is the Tank Balloons as they give out a nice chunk of medals towards your overall progression. And, if you are struggling to find some of them then this article will be what you need as we have all the Forza Horizon 5 Tank Balloon locations.
A group of the balloons are locked behind each of the ranks which you can upgrade, so you can’t grab them all initially. Almost all of them will need you to drive off of the track and onto the islands so look for the orange pieces of track on the map!
Read on below for the Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels Tank Balloon locations, so you can be on your way to completing everything there is to do in the expansion.
Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels Tank Balloon locations
There are 20 Forza Horizon 5 Hot Wheels Tank Balloon locations scattered throughout the four biomes of the new map. They can be found in the following places, with guides on how to reach them as well!
Forest Falls TANK BALLOON LOCATIONS
Tank Balloon 1 location
The first Tank Balloon location in the Forest Falls area is in the southwest. Ride along the track and you will see it hovering just off the edge. Simply ride off and fall down to pop it.
Tank Balloon 2 location
Next, continue upwards to the middle of the Forest Falls area and one of the upper levels of the track. Here you can find a large ramp leading to a jump and the balloon.
Tank Balloon 3 location
The next balloon is in the far west. Ride along the track along the edge of the map and then off the jump to crash into it.
Tank Balloon 4 location
The fourth tank balloon is on the far south edge of Forest Falls. Ride off the track at one of the points where you can hop off and jump off the ramp and off the side of the island to smash into the balloon.
Tank Balloon 5 location
Next, head just to the southwest of the island, quite close to the last balloon. Here you can find another balloon at a jump on a hill.
Tank Balloon 6 location
Head to the far east of the Forest Falls island. Drive all the way down off the waterfalls to the pool of water. There you can find a ramp leading to the balloon.

Tank Balloon 8 location
This balloon can be found between the Horizon Nexus and Forest Falls. Head to one of the inner corners of the Forest Falls island and jump off onto the platforms holding the Hot Wheels Park up. Ride along them until you reach a ramp by a loop-the-loop. Jump off the ramp to smash into the tank balloon.
GIANT’S CANYON TANK BALLOON LOCATIONS

Just to the east, you can find a small circular loop. Head up to the higher level of the circular bit of track and jump off to the lower level to smash the balloon.
