Even when taped with aluminized tape, adhesive weights have a tendency to come off when subjected to the heat generated during hard braking. This is just due to the heat transferred to the rim softening the glue. Imagine how much more heat is naturally in the body of a caliper. Can only hope that this is an assembly line gag.
Considering the cost of the new Camaro, I can't imagine anyone who'd knowingly accept delivery of a car that actually needed those weights to have the calipers function "normally". If this is true, it doesn't say much for either Brembo or GM. Would like to think it's a hoax.
