at least i think i did. i was cleaning the wheels (hubcapless b.t.w.) today and i noticed there is no balance on the front passenger side. just the clip that holds the balance on.

Now there is no noise, vibration, or harshness from this as of yet and to test i just picked up my wife from work after driving 80+ on the freeway. So should i be concerned? Or should i hold my breath and save the seven bucks(at costco) to get it rebalanced and just get wheels instead (hopefully by january)

any help is, as always, apreciated!

As long as you don't notice any apparent vibration problems while driving the car, you should be pretty safe. Sometimes the balance weights themselves become less necessary as you wear down the tires and so on, too.
