One thing to add, while your wheels and tires are a big chunk of the weight here - you also have the uprights/knuckle and the wheel hub, bearing, brakes, rotor etc etc. All of that adds up quick. Most times if you are looking to reduce this on a car you will have the most gains (or losses haha) switching to an aftermarket wheel. No wonder the manufacturers slapped alloys on their cars too!
