A snap ring substantially uniform corss section is placed within a groove in a rotor disk of a bladed rotor. Unbalance of the bladed rotor with the ring installed is determined. The snap ring is removed for grinding to correct the unbalance and reinstalled at the same location grinding on or near the rotor is thereby avoided.
