Default what would be considered "too heavy" for a 17" wheel on 1.8tqms? hows 28lbs?

i've been considering the momo sport and they're around 28lbs for 17x8.

i've heard people mention 24 or sometimes even 22lbs .. if i remember correctly.

thanks for any info/opinions/facts.

99.5 1.8tqms apr -> in the shop waiting for parts.

Default 28 lbs is way fat...

You can easily get 15-17 lbs street rims for the a4, see my numerous achived lists.
