have you guys noticed any decrease in power or speed due to the weight of these wheels compared to your previous? what abiout gas mileage?

i really like the way they look, but the weight of it is what is detering me from buying them..

Wheels are not really heavy probably the same as the oem 18's my car came with, im sure the polished lip ones or chrome lips are more heavy, i currently have a 22.3 mpg average and car still pulls nicely, main difference i noticed are turning radius and u turns.
