No not bad just usually alloy wheels get balanced with stick on weights (or at least thats how we do them at work)
Just looks cleaner because you cant see them, and on a car that looks as good as yours it just supprised me that they had been balanced in that way.
I wish id had the drive to clean mine in this weather! Car looks very good.
Whats in place of your glove box?
