Gary, would be great to be able to list wheels by weight, in addition to price and size.

Default Gary, would be great to be able to list wheels by weight, in addition to price and size.

I'm looking for some new 18x8's to replace my stock 18x8's on my A3. The stock 5-spokers that I have probably weight over 30 lbs., I'm guessing, so almost anything new will be an improvement. Would prefer something not ultra light, but light-ish and durable for northern California urban and mountain roads, 7 spokes would be best.

The O.Z. Palladios look nice, although not 7 spokes, but they're kind of heavy aren't they?

My stock 18x8's on my car:

I agree and its something that is still in the works (but it will be awhile I'm told).

For this size and vehicle fitment most of the OZ wheels are pretty stout/heavy with exception of the Ultraleggara and Crono HT (both 19lbs). The Paladio comes in at 26lbs.<ul><li><a href="http://www.tirerack.com/a.jsp?a=AR8&amp;url=/wheels/index.jsp">wheels</a></li></ul>
