Questions about wheels

[ghz]

I'm thinking about getting new wheels for my '09 SE, but before I do, I have some questions:

1. Does anyone know the specifications for the SE 17" rims? Specifically, I want to know the weight so that the new wheels are no heavier than the OEM wheels.
2. How can I make sure that the size that I pick doesn't throw off the speedometer or any other calibrations?

Thanks,

-G

stock se specs:
17x7", offset +45

to make sure you dont screw up your speedo, use a tire calculator to get the exact diameter as the oem 17s when you choose to go with 19s. do a search on google and there should be plenty that comes up

Cast OEM rims are kinda heavy, but so are most cast aftermarket rims.

That said, I suggest BBS RGRs or Volk RE30

Any idea what the rims alone weigh?

OEM size is the best.
