Weight of 18" stock rims

What is the weight of the stock 18" 300c rims?
Not the rim and tire weight, just the rim weight.

When I eventually get some 20" rims I want to make sure they are not too heavy.

I would guess the rim is probably around 35lbs, not positive though.

I just called a local dealer and they also say the 18" rim is 24lbs.
Hopefully I can find a 20" rim that I like that weighs close to 24lbs.

Don't forget that bigger rubber = more weight. Yes the profile is lower but the width and diameter is bigger. More rolling mass unsprung weight will lengthen stopping distances. BAER hopes to have a brake upgrade by SEMA in Nov. I may get SS lines to firm up the pedal and upgrade the fronts only since I don't plan to race.
