i just bought a set of 5 spoke 17's w/hankook 106 tires

i bought 17s to hopefully loose a little weight from the stock bulky 18's

so i was just curious if anyone knows the stock rim weight on the GTS model. or even the entire rim and tire set up weight... id just like to know exactly how much weight i am losing

the new rims a bought are 17.5 lbs(w/out tires) now i understand thats not like super light but its gotta be lighter then the stockers!!

any info is good..
i plan to compare them when swopping them out on the lift but id like to have some kind of figures to go by rather then saying.."oh yea they were way lighter when i picked them up" lol

thanks

I read somewhere that they weight around 22lbs from memory. Thing is I don't remember where I read that and I have no clue if it's trust worthy. If it is that quite a weight loss. Got pics?
