The rim clip weights are better to ballance as they will get the radial as well as the axial directions ballanced, the stick on weghts will only correct the radial direction (Static Ballance). But then you have to ask yourself, does it look OK with the weights clamped on the outside. Im sure if you went to a reputable tire store they would have the ballancer set to the correct settings, because if it was left on the normal settings and they tried to use stick on weights it wouldnt work.
