     If so, how much do they weigh?
     One of the reasons I have never considered bigger aftermarket wheels
     (besides looks, height, and lack of 17" tire choices) is the huge
     increase in weight.
     I remember the first time I picked up an aftermarket 17" rear wheel,
     I wanted it as far away from my car as possible due to the large
     weight difference over the factory 15s.
     I quickly realized that pushing the car away from the wheel was
     easier than vice versa!
