wheel weights
I know wheel weight is a stat that a lot of us look at when considering aftermarket wheels and that info isn't always easily found. I thought it could be a good resource if people listed the weights of popular wheels for our cars.
Anyone know the weight of the Work Emotion CR Ultimate (Kiwami) in 19x9.5 and 19x10.5? the List: Work Emotion CR Ultimate (9.5 +25, 19x10.5 +12) - 23.8lbs front, 25.8lbs rear Wedsport SA55m 19 inch (9.5 and 10.5)- 21.5 pound front 21.9 rear Advan GT 20 inch (10 and 11 width) 21 pounds Volk TE37 19 inch (9.5 and 10.5) 21 pounds Volk CE28 19 inch 20 pounds ISS Forged ML24 GT7 19 inch (10/11 width) 20 pounds Nismo stock wheels 19 inch 21 pounds

that's because those custom wheels vary weight by width, i think.
if you're below 25lbs per wheel you probably wont notice much difference. it does help to run lighter weight tires too, like PSS, DW's, even stock Advans. 27lbs for tires is a good weight to target. most are 30-31lbs range. bridgestone tires are usually heavier. so consider gross weight. |

Yes, width matters, it would be great if people can chime in with the specs of their wheels as well as the weight. I'm running re-11s, not sure if those are considered heavy or not but they are great.

I believe you're looking at around 27-28 lbs for 19x9.5 and 28-29 lbs for 19x10.5 roughly

Yea those are the wheels I'm running but in 19x10.5 19x11 specs. I don't think they're forged either so that's why they're a bit heavy :/

They're def not forged, but I've seen other flowformed wheels that aren't heavy. Did you get those numbers form weighing them?
