What is considered a light weight wheel?

[14.5 drift]

I found a wheel I kind of like, it is relatively inexpensive, and weighs about 18 lbs with out a tire. I think it is 17x7, but heres a pic of the wheel and the car, can some one chop for me?
Maybe tint the windows a lil too while your at it.

18 lbs and under is pretty light weight.

Anything under 20 would be considered light weight. Typical 17" rim weigh in at 21-23 lbs.

Weight alone isn't everything though. Some light rims are light at the expense of strength. How the light rim was made is just as important to consider. Many light rims are prone to bending, so you have to be careful with your choices.

Well it's just a simple cast wheel, but not abnormally light for a cast wheel, seen cast wheel as light as 13, as heavy as 23. 18 - 21 is average weights for cast wheels, wuddya think?

You should ask for a photochop in the media in the Photoshop Forum, you'll get what you want a lot sooner that way.
And that rim is pretty light
