Both wheelweights.net and DRFlickner of JLB Motorsports lists them at 11.5 lbs.

I agree,wheelweights.net is more accurate than the manufacturers advertized weight,manufacturers goal is to attract prospective buyers thats why they lower the actual weight,not all manufacturers but some of them,just my $0.02 cents,!

I weighed mine when I purchased them and they were definitely under 11lbs - about 10.8lbs I would say

40 mm offset

Is 40 mm offset okay? I was thinking of ordering Heliums and found only 15x6.5 +40.

Best price I found was here for $90 ea (+ $58 shipping):

Konig Wheels - Helium - Silver - Rims

...do places give trade-in for wheels? Not sure what I would do with my OEM alloys.

Leandro82,
I have the 15x6.5 , 40 mm offset with Falken ZE512 tires 195x50x15
and they look good and no issues at all.
But mine are Black on White Sport

Hope this helps AC

Thanks, that looks like a great deal! I am getting GF210 drop too, do you think that will cause any issues?

Edit - just read thru that thread. Seems like +40 with GF210 should be okay.

To give you guys a heads up, I've improved on the wheelweights.net list, with a few more added wheels and sortable table so it's much easier to browse.

Wheel weights - Mechanical Database

I need some help expanding it, eventually I'd like to include pictures of all the wheels as well.

And be sure to also check out the bolt pattern reference I've compiled:

Wheel bolt patterns - Mechanical Database

If any of you guys would like to contribute and help expand it, it would be greatly appreciated. Editing it is easy, it works the same way wikpedia does.
