hi ! in support of the other replies I will repeat !!! Every time yes every time a tyre is changed the wheel and tyre are rebalanced which necessitates the old weight coming off and news one being added as necessary. It is because that every wheel and tyre combination is different and sometimes the tyre is not perfectly concentric on the wheel so balancing is done to offset the imperfections.
As for looks well it is what it is!! I would say that sometimes tyre fitters do not fit the tyre correctly thus requiring extra weights above the norm.....I would say that your wheel does seem to have a lot of weights in one location....if they took the tyre off and remounted it the weights would again be different.....

You could ask them to rebalance but put the weights on the inner side away from the front, it is possible!!!
