Weight of factory rims
Does anyone know the weight of the factory rims, without the tire on it? I am debating on weather to replace them when I put new tires on, But I don't want heavier rims.

Wait.....
You could try the post in the Tech Garage section - the one entitled "Weight of Stock Parts".
It's stickied at the front of the section.
(....did you know that the plastic Engine Cover - 2.3lbs?

22 lb seems to be the number. In order for me to get significantly below that, I would have to spend over$2000 for rims that I like. I would rather save that resource for the afsc.
