Balrogs having wings has been much debated. It is for sure that they cant fly though, for they rode to Gondolin on the backs of dragon like creatures. I believe that they had wings, but it was made up of more shadow and fire than flesh. Read the description of the Balrog in LoTR. The balrog was wreathed in shadow and flame.
