Sorry to hear about that issue. Glad to hear you opti-coated the wheels that will certainly help preserve them. I would imagine it's possible the wheel weight didn't bond with it perfectly but short term I would think it still should have stuck to it. Are the wheel weights missing? That should provide you your answer. In general I would recommend applying the wheel weights first if needed before using the Opti-Coat or any other protection on the wheel just to be safe. I'm guessing it was far more likely an install issue but keep us posted on what comes out of it and drive careful!
