weight of stock wheels?
Anyone know how much the SC430 stock 8x18 wheel, the one used with run flats, weighs? Or where I can find out? Dealer no help and Lexus customer service in California has ignored my inquiry.
Want to compare it to various aftermarket wheels.

wt of stock wheels
CE Boyd, thanks, that is a lot of weight. Some of the aftermarket wheels are down to 22 lbs, 15 less, that ought to make a difference in handling. Will report further if I do anything about this.

except
...keep in mind that the sc430 is NOT a light car... cheap lightweight aftermarket rims will bend easily because of this... (IE. Milli Miglia)
...you may want to stick with the better known stronger- lighter wheels like HRE, SSR, Kinesis, Fikse, etc.
