15 pounds i think is right. Your saying that they weight 30 pounds with tires, but tires weigh quite a bit.

'99-00 Si wheels are 15x6" and one of mine weighed slightly over 16lbs.

Those of you posting weights with the tires included need to realize that those are irrelevent because tire weight can vary by as much as several pounds among different tire models.

tfalconier, here's a shot of the Si wheels I had on my '93 EX, to give you an idea of how well they go with the car:

15 x 6. I'd agree with the 15 lbs.

I don't think spoon wheels are a quarter of the weight of si wheels. lighter,yes. but I think that's a little crazy. plus if he's looking at getting si wheels, I don't think spoon's are in his price range. Nice try though.

My thoughts exactly.

And you're right - 15" Spoon SW388s are a bit over half of what Si wheels weigh.

I have got a set of Si Rims, they are really good rims, I would concur with the 15 lbs., but hey, if anyone wants to buy a set I would be more than happy to sell them to ya. Looking to get $375 with tires.

I had Si rims on my del Sol. They looked like 18's because my **** was so slammed. Looked really good until people started to run into my **** and I was forced to sell it and buy a POS EF hatch.
