Im thinking maybe some AVS model 5 0r 6 if available in 20" will be on the lighter side.There is also a rim I really like called manray sport ms-6 hyper.I am pretty sure they are available in 20" and are alo on the lighter side.Sorry I dont have any specific weights so maybe some of the experts will elaborate for you.

When I was foolishly considering buying the Binno wheel(same as pictured) I talked to the owner of the website/store named
http://www.binnocustomwheels.com/. He is also the owner of the Mustang pictured on the home page and has that wheel in 20".
He told me they are a cast wheel made in South America. I HIGHLY doubt that wheel is 25lbs....
When I had the 20" Work Equip (3 piece forged) the fronts weighed 58lbs each with tires and the rears weighed 60lbs with tires...I dont know how much the tires weighed though.( Nitto 555 245F and 275R).

Holy cow that's heavy. The stock 17" rim with tire is about 49lbs. I think my 18s aren't hardly any heavier, maybe 51 at the back?

Every pound will make a difference in handling and performance.

The wheel without tire is 25.7 lbs as weighed on my own scale. Tinygs yes the wheel is made in South America-as if this is a bad thing. That's fine I hope more people don't buy the wheels I have-all the better-these are just the facts......I haven't weighed the tires I have though so I don't have the combined weight. They are cast and VERY sturdy with a very nice finish. Sorry Manaray-not
