Two thoughts:
I have some really good foam tape - maybe 3M? You can find it in all the
usual places.
I was always under the impression that new tires had a stamp thar indicated
either the heavy spot or the light spot - it was meant to be mounted next
to the valve stem. That was supposed to minimize the amount of additional
weight that needed to be applied. It's been 40 years since I balanced a
tire, though - things may have changed.
