Default Wing question

HI all, I'm about 95% completed on my wing for a Balsa USA Stick 40 + with wingtip
Ailerons, I got the 2 Aileron servos in, and extensions, all looks fine there, And I'm about to start covering, everything on wing looks good, and equal, and is built nice, cept for fact wing is heavy on one side, I'm trying to remove some weight from heavy wing side,. by hollowing out
the somewhat thick solid balsa wingtip, so far so good, however I can only remove so much
I guess, I may have to add weight to other side, ( don't need all that much really, but I want it
perfect!!), Is it common for wings to be out of balance like this in the bones ? and what kind of weights and how do ya attach them, I was thinking of epoxying lead to outermost rib? befere covering of course lol, As for fusalage , its 100% done and excellent, and ready to go
