stock are 15.6 lb. and i don't think they make anything that looks exactly like stock.. and it wouldn't make a difference if they would be around 12-13 lb., you probably wouldn't notice any difference unless you're down to sub-10 lb.

You'll also be able to feel a big difference when you switch to the Placebo Racing wheels.

Stock wheels are 15.62 lbs. Very light for an "OEM" wheel.
