    How much weight in total was added?
    Based from the "Fe5" label, total of 125 grams. If another shop can balance it with at most 4, then I can confirm motech's shenanigans.

    125g is borderline, but still acceptable, IMO.

    How about the light spot of the tire (yellow dot or circle)? Is it aligned to the valve stem?
