Default Weight of 92-93 wheels vs. 94-96

Does anybody know the difference in weight between these two alloy wheels. I am thinking about switching, I just want to know if its worth it.

So Honda 318dx would you recomend switching to the newer wheels for a slight gain in power (less mass to rotate)

By all means, go with the lighter wheels... not only is it less rotational mass for your engine to power, it's also less unsprung weight! so you'll be able to help your car handle better and lower percentage of energy between the flywheel and the wheels.
