and if you dont like the hammer on wheel weights cause you think they look like ****, just ask the tire guy you would prefer if it was balanced using stick on wheel weights.
Yep, I get them as close to zero balance as possible, if they're w/in a .25oz, I don't worry about them... if they need more than .25oz, It gets sticky weights.

The only problem with sticky weights is that they fall off sometimes.
