A question about wheel weights.

Is it just laziness on the part of the manufacturer or just justification for the cost of the shop balancing equipment, charges, and training?

A casting or machined can be pretty much controlled and be balance right away, but the rubber and tyre structure is a different thing.

Technology is better, but still not perfect, and you don't need much error to make it a noticeable inbalance.
