18" SE Rim Weight?

Anyone know the exact weight of a rim off a 2004 SE? I have searched, but cannot seem to put my eyes on the right thread or figure.

Thanks!

I almost didn't get rid of them. I always liked the cut and style of the 04-06 SE wheel. Chromed version was my first (and cheapest way to go mod). I did get a lot of compliments on them. They can still be purchased on Ebay I believe.

More like 3600-3700ish depending on what you take out of the car. Last time I weighed it with me (175lb) in it, no floor mats, sub box, spare tire or trunk mats it was 3650lbs.

Agreed. I think the stock rims are more like 26lbs, that chrome finish didn't make that much of a difference after all. I weighed them at the time of sale on a UPS scale so I would say the 27.64lbs is pretty accurate for them.

Check the tire specs, and look for the term 'weight' But yes, typical 18" tires weigh around 22-27lbs.

I think my car is about 3400-3450 stock.

and I would think the chrome would replace the paint/clearcoat, so the weight wouldn't really change...
