Wheel weight comparison site

Found this and thought it may be of some use, it lists a lot of different wheel makes (including obscure Jappo wheels ) in different sizes/widths

WHEELWEIGHTS.NET

This is great.

Now the question is, what would you go for..... a 1/2inch wider wheel if it adds 1.1lbs of unsprung weight? Or save the weight and deal with a 9.0 wheel?

Good site....They had the R32 16x8's on there at 16.

...does anyone know what the factory R33 and R34 wheels weigh?

thats a great site.
I just looked up my Wedsport TC005's. (18 x 10)
It says that they're "Forged" instead of "Cast". Which is better ?
Also it says they weigh 18.9 lbs. Is that per wheel or a set of 4.
There's no way one of my wheels weighs the same as 18 bags of sugar.
They're sooooo light.

Forged is better - 19lb sounds about right for a wide 18" rim - its only about 8.6kg

Nice wheels btw - they're the same as whats on my car (when it gets here!)
