Yea they will probably not pick up on this unless your doing it a lot with regulars. "Balancing your range" Is usually unneccessary and overrated especially at lower stakes. Its ok to play expoitably if your opponents aren't good enough to exploit you.
What bottomset said is right. If you get called by a passive player whos in position then dont cbet 578 two tone flop with the plan to give up unimproved.
Basically look for good boards to cbet (qxx, jxx) and boards where there are a lot of good double barrel cards.
It ok to c/f a flop as a pfr (It took me ages to learn this)
