I think they weigh 28lbs each. It might be 26lbs. One of the 2.

That seems kinda heavy for 16 inch alloy wheels. Where did you get your information from?

The stock SE 15s weigh about 21 lbs each and I've heard the 16s weight about 25 lbs. Yes, these wheels are heavy for a 16" and I think this is why the 97+ SEs are a tad slower than the 95-96. I love having my 16" Kosei K1s which weigh a whopping 16 lbs each

The stock 5 spoke 16x6.5 95-98 240sx SE rims weight 19lbs each and the 90-96 16x7.5 300ZX rims weigh 17lbs. 25-28lbs sounds wrong.

I had emailed the sales service at Discounttire.com and they replied that the wheel weight of the 17x8 Momo arrow rim weighs about ~23.8 pounds and the the tire would be another 20 pounds. Is this true that momo arrows are the same weight as the the stock 16's for the max?
