      not that much for the 15x7. Somewhere around 16lbs.

      edit: actually if Falkens website is right, the tire there is 17.6lbs, meaning the wheel is 14.16lbs

        You can get much lighter autocross wheels such as a kosei k1

          for double the price before tires. I think the OP is looking for a decent track wheel that wont break the bank. Kosei K1s will break the bank for most people. Not to mention, if you curb up a $400 set of wheels, you wont feel so bad, curb up an $800+ set a wheels, baby jesus will cry.

            Good point. I was just using the k1 as an example as it is a well known light weight track wheel. I would go for the drag dr-17s. The 15x7 weighs 14.25lbs and it's only like $96 on discount tire.

                    I have the 521s in hyper silver. They're nice, but I wish they weren't multilug and the chrome rivets are absolutely terrible.

                    From 10 feet away they look awesome.
