      WR200 wheels are aluminium not steel so they are lighter.

          @dan28 I mean, the stock ones are not that heavy. I think any form of USD will be heavier, despite them being aluminium. But you end up with better handling because of it.

          Focus on wheels, since if you want to shed weight you would be looking into something custom. The wheels I said are a direct fit.
