Weights for those fitments are as follows:

20x9.5 - 27.4lbs
20x10.5 - 26.8lbs
20x11 - 26.6lbs

And no, that's not a typo, the larger the wheel, the lighter on this particular fitment!

What size tires do you recommend for these wheels ??
We have '14 Pony

Best option that HRE recommends for those wheels would be the following:

Front - 265/35/20
Rear - 285/30/20

Of course that's not set in stone, but that's their recommendation on that fitment, and anything larger than that can cause rubbing issues. If you want a wheel/tire quote, we do wheel/tire packages all the time!

Thanks, I appreciate the quick answer !
Sounds like those would give our Pony a Nice Looking Wide Stance !
I'd have no clearance issues right?
Also are those made to work on the Pony with NO adaptor ?

A 285/30/20 on a 10.5" or 11" wide rear rim...really?? Please tell me that was a typo....or do the rims stick out past the fenders so bad that you have to run that narrow of tire on such a nice wide rim?

Just curious. Thanks!

No clearance issues at all. HRE is the premier wheel manufacturer in the world, there's no way that HRE would steer you wrong as they have been in the industry since 1978, much longer than most other companies. Not only that but I wouldn't steer anyone on this forum wrong either, these wheels are absolutely fantastic but most importantly they are built specifically to this chassis. No adapters needed

Not a typo, it's what's recommended from HRE specifically. If you want to go any larger than that you of course can if you really want, its your car and your money but, any larger and it could cause rubbing issues with this particular fitment.

So my question is, are the offset and other pertinent specs the same on S197 vs S550?
