Default Anyone know where to find the weight of a wheel?

I checked the Racing Hart web page, but it did not contain any weights. I'm looking for the weight of a 17" RH Evolution Z-5000 rim in white and in silver. If anyone can help me out, thanks in advance.

I dont know the weight but it would seem like if you cared about weight, then you wouldn't want 17s.

That's the site I use, but it's not listed... I'm guessing most RH rims in a 17x7.5 are around 16lbs.

Holy Sh^t, I never thought of that, wow! Your incredible wisdom and amazing insight has shown me the errors of my ways!

Z4xLSVTEC, thanks for the website. It is very useful.

After checking wheelweights.net I see that 17" Buddy Club P1 QF's are only 12.9lbs. Thats two pounds less than the 15" stockers I have on now. Does anyone own a set of these, or know someone who does? I'd like to know what they think of them, and see any pics they have as well. Again, thanks in advance.
