Hey here are some more wheel weights. home.earthlink.net/~cvlocas/ To get to the weights go to the upper right hand corner a click on wheels and it will take you to the weights. Wheel weight can be important depending on application. Ex. If you have a 8 valve hatch 27 pound wheels would make it more of a dog. You should also consider rotational force of a heavy wheel. Heavy wheels cause the suspension not to function as designed. So before you buy wheels research the weights and there effect on your car. I run rota 17in subzeros which weighs 16.5 pounds, konig has a subzero that weighs 16.9 pounds. Really light wheels are expensive (ex. racing harts cp-035 which weighs 13 pounds in 17in). Thats light.
