Rim Weight Question 06MT Sport Rims Vs. Coupe 18's

Which ones are lighter? I'm trying to decide which I want to buy. I like the 18 inch sport rims for the sedan better but they cost almost twice as much as the coupe 18s.

The OEM 19's are lighter and forged, but more of the weight is located further from the axis of rotation so they'll provide about the same level of acceleration

truth, buy my sedan 18" sport wheels + tires. i live in oakland too. you'll save on shipping. they're mint, no curbage, no problems. lots and lots of tread left.

they are not forged, but they are not heavy either. i believe they're 23lbs a piece. with rubber they weigh as much as the oem 19s.
