I never got back a wheel to rebalance that I did with adhesive weights. They keys are a clean, properly prepared surface and a quality weight. As for "clip on" weights, if you're using them on aluminum or aluminum alloy wheels, make sure the weight is properly coated or the galvanic corrosion will result in bead leaks.

When I was balancing my own tires/wheels, I was a bit "anal" (right?) about it and would mount the tire then put it on the balancer. If it was off by more than an ounce, I'd mark the "light" spot on the tire, break the beads and rotate the tire 180* on the rim and balance again, repeating until I found the "lightest" weights.
