Guessing doesn't count.
I cannot find the link right now on where I found out that number, but it is accurate. The OEM wheels are pretty heavy especially the chromies.

I was trying to search for it but couldn't find the wheel weight... I found like the wheel weights for some ES rims and IS300 rims.
Anyone know how much the stock 18" GS rims weight?

There are no stock second gen GS 18" wheels that I can recall... just 16s and 17 varieties. You thinking of 3rd gen GS? There are several varieties of 18s.

Does anyone know what the 16s weigh as they seem pretty light. I am about to replace them with 19s, but am woried about the additonal weight hurting acceleration.

I weighed my oem 3GS 18s and they were 27-28 on my scale. that's the only thing I don't like about them.
my oem 16s are pretty light. I don't know exact weight though.

I personally weighed an OEM 5-spoker last year without a tire. It was definitely less than 25 pounds. I posted the exact weight in a thread a while back. As I recall, it was between 23-24 pounds.
