what is the weight of the S13's stock alloys (7 point)? I'd like to have a baseline seeing as i am looking at wheels

I've always heard 22lbs, though without weighing them myself I can't be 100% sure, but that's the number I used when I bought my wheels.  I believe it though.  My new 16x7" rota subzeros with 225/16 tires weigh about the same as the stock 15x6. 195/60 stocker combo.

Anywhere between 18 and 20 lbs is what my digital scale showed.

That sounds way low. &nbsp;In GRM this month they had a tire comparison and the kuhmo 712's in a 205/55/16 weighed in at 21lbs or somewhere around there (sorry, too many tires, sizes, and weights in my head from it, but I know it was right around 20lbs). &nbsp;That's the tire alone, leaving ~6lbs left to be the wheel. &nbsp;That would be one hell of a light wheel.

For comparison my 225/45/16 712's on 16x7 rota subzeros weigh (based on picking them up) almost the same as my 7 spokes with 195/60/15 H-rated Dunlop all season tires.
