OEM 18" wheel weight
I am shopping for wheels for my RX and want to keep the weight down. Anyone know what the factory 18" five spokes weigh so I have a reference point.

Keep in mind the weight is relative to size when it come to aftermarket wheels for the most part.
Ex.
OEM 18x8 22lbs $$$
Aftermarket Work wheels 18x9.5 24.5lbs $$$$$$$
Aftermarket Advan RS 19x9 20.4lbs $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
If your looking to really keep the weight down, well i hope you got deep pockets. Anything under 20lbs your talking big bucks.

^...or 5zigen FN01R's or OZ's or at least another half dozed wheels. Lots of wheels under 20 lbs that arent a whole lot of money...TR motorsports wheels from tire rack...Kosei's...

I bought the car used with Yoko S.drives and I cannot wait to get rid of them. These are the noisiest tire on any car I have ever had. I do not recommend them.

Enkei PF01 18" those are around 18lbs per Tirerack. I am also thinking the Conti DW max performance summer at 22lbs/corner. Those have good reviews and are substantially lighter than any Bridgestone out there. (factory RE040 27lbs.) I see a lot of people worried about wheel weight, but no know worries about tires. That is a lot of rotational mass at the outside of the wheel.

The PF01 is one of the few exception to the rule. They were designed for the track-- light and decently priced.
