Default Lightweight 5 spoke wheels

How much lighter are the Lightweight 5 spoke wheels than a Turbo twist?

if you have a 99, odds are you have solid spoke wheels, if that is the case:

Turbo Look I wheels:
7.5" x 18" = 24.91 lbs.
10" x 18" = 29.32 lbs.

18" Carrera wheels:
8" x 18" = 20.50 lbs.
10" x 18" = 22.70 lbs.

If you have hollow spoke wheels, the weight difference is negligible...
