While some wheels listed are current, many are not. Although if you are looking for olders wheels this is a good resource.

Kosei K1 TS in 15x7" and other current Kosei wheels are absent for example.
Stock MINI wheels aren't listed but

Of note are the other 15x5.5" wheels:
Mazda 323 7-spoke Cast 15.3 pounds
Compomotive TH Cast 16.3 pounds
Compomotive ML Cast 16.5 pounds
Compomotive TH2 Cast 18.1 pounds
EMPI 5-spoke Cast 20.0 pounds

Makes the stock Holeys seem so light!

Until you see some light 15x6" wheels:
Racing Hart CP-035R SSF 7.9 pounds
SSR Type-C (called Competitions in the US) SSF 8.0 pounds
Volk TE37 Forged 8.2 pounds

Thanks goaljnky & minihune. This is great information. I wish this thread "wheel weight info" could be easily accessed in the archives. Perhaps someday. It's interesting to see that some stock wheels are already quite light--considering they must be strong enough for everyday driving. Some of the names are a stretch though such as Konig Tantrum. What is the manufacturer suggesting?
