Default Stock rim weight

Anyone know where I can find a list of the stock rim weight. I want to find out how much mine weigh. I found some 17's that are 19lbs each. Is this a good weight?

Model of car is in sig.

anything under 20lbs for 17" is pretty good. however, if the rims aren't forged, then weighing less than 20lbs potentially means weaker rims, and may not take to potholes as well.

I think that's a pretty good weight. The 18" SSR GT1's that I'm buying for my 03 Coupe are 17.5 lbs each, so I'd think 19 lbs. wouldn't be too bad...

I found that the attacks and the subzero's are 16.5lbs each which are nice. Right now though i am looking at these 2 rims.

1.


Or


2.

Any opinions. There both 19lbs.

I can always count on AccordSleeper to respond quickly:thumbup:

Those rims are really nice. I most likley will get the enkei, but this won't be happening till next summer. Internship almost over and need to save some money for those costly books.

Honestly I would love to get these

But it's time to come back to reality.
