Some of the Brembo equipped Camaros were having a squeel, squeek or hum during certain speeds/driving conditions. I don't think it was due to any phisical issue but harmonics. The weights were placed there until a "real" fix could be implemented. GM's fix was to install the "rollerskate wheel" things on the calipers.

I found these after a quick search:

and http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...squeel+weights

As far as having weights on there, I'm good with it. I think the rollerskate wheels look kind of goofy and are very noticeable. People don't even notice the wheel weights until I point it out to them.

I think the chances of one falling off are slim to none.
