You have to figure that out by checking the manufacturer's website. Basically, you find a wheel you like that fits, then check the site to get the weight.

I was basicallly trying to get a idea on which wheels/tires are most popular on the 99-04 models that provide the best performance/acceleration. Pics, weight of wheel and or tire would be nice in this thread. I really like my set of 18x9 steeda ultralites, but I decided to do my recent dyno pull with my '95 cobra R silver rims with nitto drags. I didn't get a chance to weigh the wheel by itself but he wheel and tire combo weighed in at approximately 47 lbs just using regular scales.

I would love to upgrade to some 17" 03/04 cobras, just wished they didn't weigh 25lbs+
Does anyone know if there is lighter after market ones available?
