Bigger doesn't have to be heavier.
My former SVT Contour had 16" wheels from the factory at about 18-19# each IIRC. I replaced them with 17" wheels that were about 13.5# each (O.Z. Racing Superleggera)
I'm pretty sure the 17" Firestones I put on there were no heavier than the factory BFG or Goodyear tires you got with the car.
So you can LOWER the wheel weight and get a slightly bigger wheel at the same time.
