Default Balanced Chassis vs Minimum Weight

Hi all,
Now that brushless and Lipo technologies are the new flavour of the month in 1/10 touring, I have a question regarding the priority of weighting.

Is it more important to have a chassis balanced from side to side, which often involves going over the minimum 1500gm weight, or leave the car unbalanced to stick as close to 1500 as possible?

Which approach do you feel would give the most benefit for rubber tyres on asphalt.
