Are you serious about the stock wheels weighing in that much? Holy crap, my 17's on my A4 weigh 26 pounds. The stock 14" steelies weight in at the same amount? Wow.

15 x 6.5 may work...it is a slightly higher profile tire and cheaper.

Thanks for not responding with your standard "STFA"
Well, don't quote me on the weight of the stockers. All I know is that they're pretty hefty for such a small wheel.

Usually when folks get new wheels and tires, they put all season or high grip tires on the new wheels and then put a set of snow tires on the stockers. Don't know if you want to go that route, but it is an attractive option, especially if you want to protect your new investment.
