I am thinking of replacing lighter alloy wheels.

Do you guys know how many pounds each stock alloy weights?
Let me guess ~ 15 lbs maybe?

Any light weight alloy recommendations?
3pcs wheels? 1pc wheels?

Is there any websites that I can view alloy wheel & tire weights?

the stocks weights abt 22~23lb each ~

Sounds absolutely right.

Don't know about any websites with stats like this.


edit: Actually it seems there's a semi-official figure of 24 (as per our "sister site").
But most posters on the various sites have thought it's 22-23.

The lightest wheels you'd want to find are one piece forged aluminum or magnesium wheels, they will reduce significant weight while improving performance ala - Turning, braking, stopping due to a reduced unsprung weight.

Some popular manufacturers are - Rays Engineering, Racing Hart, Speedline Corse.

don't forget rotation aka centrifical weight, you want as small rim ass posible, cuz a lighter 18in might still cause you to loose power over a heavier stock 17inch or even 16in

how much do the "Silver Star" rims weigh?

How are they manufactured? Forged? Cast?
