15" vs 16" weight / nice rim spec site too



During one of the suspension threads recently someone mentioned running 15" 
rims for autocross because of the lighter weight as opposed to 16". Being 
curious I found some Keiser super light (steel)15" rims that weighed 14 lbs, 
my rims are 16" Kosei Sniper's (cast alum) at 18 lbs. Is that 16lb (15.8, 
hahaha) difference going to have a dramatic impact when I race my car?

alos I found a nice rim spec site, not a lot of VW choices, but lots of 
aftermarket spec's including weights.
although they list my rim at 18.9lbs the postal scale said 17.950.
