I think you are right, going to strip the weights off the front two and get the man around the corner to balance them to Zero as he always does on Monday.

OP, I had my wheels rebalanced the 'Static' way with the weights applied as close to the centre line of the wheel as possible (the weights were previously on the inside edge of the wheel), per Dougal's advice, and this fixed the balancing problem for me. Good luck.
