The invention relates to a method and a set of balance weights for balancing a rotor particularly of a turbomachine, on which a plurality of balance weights, which are distributed over the periphery, can be arranged for balancing an imbalance. A set of balance weights, in particular plate-shaped weights, with a predetermined number of groups of balance weights, is used for balancing the rotor. Each of the balance weights of every group of balance weights has an identical weight that is assigned to this group and a shape assigned to this group, which differs in basic shape and/or thickness of the balance weights from the balance weights of the other groups.
