Wheel Balance?

I have a question about Tire Balance.
I just added the MINI Valve stem caps on my Mini and was noticing the difference in weight from the Factory Plastic caps to these Chrome Mini Logo caps. I know its a very low weight, but at 60Mph it seems like it would be a factor in the tire balance. Does anyone know if this would be an issue?

I think you should be fine. I can't imagine it's more than a couple of grams difference.
