OEM SS calipers with weights?

I was putting new pads and rotors on, and I noticed on both front calipers, weights on top of the calipers I didn't count them, but it looked like there were 8-10 stick on tire weights, anyone know why there would be weights on calipers? They are original calipers. This is something I have never seen before.
