Good point. I'm not 100% sure. However, depending on the shop, the vibration becomes better or worse. So, some guys have done it better than others. Especially since the weights are not exactly in the same areas as before.
I've hand torqued the bolts to 80lbs in a star pattern. I don't sense warped rotors either since my braking is fine. I've tried to find out if factory wheel locks offset the balance from the factory lugs in any way and most people have said that it shouldn't affect it at all.
