A wheel balancing weight has a mass body with a groove in a first face. The groove has a groove surface recessed into the first surface and has two groove walls opposite one another across the groove. An attachment clip has a clip portion for attaching the wheel balancing weight to a vehicle wheel and has an attachment portion with first and second side edges opposite one another across the attachment portion. First and second protruding elements are provided on the first and second side edges, respectively. The attachment portion is seated in the groove and has a free bottom edge extending between the first and second side edges. The first protruding element is positioned on the first side edge at a first distance from the bottom edge and the second protruding element is positioned on the second side edge at a second distance different from the first distance. Material of the mass body adjacent the two groove walls is deformed to retain the attachment portion in the groove.
