And secondly and most important: although at front of the chassis there is the small hole for balancing tool, at the back there is nothing. How do you balance (L-R) your car? Is there a balancing tool specific for the car or a similar solution??
Welcome to the crew.

1 - DJC come pre-assembled but you should take them apart and lubricate them. Also make sure you have the c-clips hooks rotating the correct direction for each side of the car. The hook should lead into the rotation. I also put a very small dab of glue on the c-clip so they don't fall off.

2 - For the back hole just put a 3mm flathead screw and nut in that open hole, then balance as normal.
