stock wheel weight?

[Forrest80]

Curious what stock wheel weight is for wheels on altima coupe 2.5s 16 inches.

I assume they are between 22-25 pounds but i want to be sure so i can caculate how much of a advantage im getting if i get Enkei Racing RPF1 or MOTEGI RACING SX5 gloss black.

Gonna go 225/50/17. Im hopeing i can achieve better gas milage and still have some sort of a grip with light weight wheels.

just the wheels? i think they may be a bit lighter... maybe 19.. im not sure though.. but when you are talking about going to a 18" wheel... losing a pound each is still good... i gained weight lol

stock weight for a wheel alone on a 2005 Nissan 350z 17x7 wheel was 25 pounds.

I assume the 16 inches are between 20-25 but im gonna say no way to 19 pounds.

Has anyone with a 2.5 noticed a difference in acceleration with heavier wheels? My last car was a Toyota Echo, so unsprung weight was a major concern for me!

i know my 20s tilt the scale at.. well ill keep that a secret.. shes a little embarrassed about her weight...

They are heavier though.. i didnt notice a response in speed.. idk though.. i was concerned about unsprung weight for a minute, then it passed.

If i can i will get Enkei Racing RPF1 at 16 inches. Will put if i can get them in max performance all season size 225/55/16 The wheel weight is 13 pounds on a enkie wheel that size. Thats gotta give me decent gas milage plus grip and better handling.

04 2.5 went from steel 16s to maxima 18's, 245w tires, definitely noticed the weight increase. I used to be able to make the tires chirp from takeoff(auto), now its impossible. Some of it could be from more grip, but the weight plays a factor for sure, I had to lift them onto the car and install them, and even tho they look good on the car, they are heavy!

Good thing im not that concerned about ultimate performance, or those would never have went on. Its a dd, so who cares.
