Default rim weights...

i know that lighter is the best.. but what is a decent weight for a rim..

say, 15, 16 and 17.

my motegi 16" weigh 19lbs each rim.

i think they weigh in at about 15.8 lbs. if you check at www.superhonda.com and go to the performance section... they have a wheel wieght guide... or you can go to www.wheelspecs.com to check the weights of some rims. usually 1 pound an inch is light... IMO i think your motegi's are pretty heavy for a 16 inch rim

if 16lbs is considered "light weight" then 19 can be considered normal, good enough for me. I dont drag race and If I did i still got the stock ones to put back on.

Also, the place that mount the tires to the rims said i have to go back to get them re-tourqed. anyone heard of doing that b4?
