I compared mine before selling my Racestars. Don't remember exact numbers, they were close though. I want to say the RTS wheel was a pound or so lighter front and rear. Aside from the slight weight difference the RTS wheel just offeres much more IMO. SFI 18.1 and 18.2 certification, different finishes offered (Black vs Polished) better looking over all, lighter, and affordable. The big thing for me was the lug nut design. Weld uses a true shank style lug nut with different bolt patterns per application, where as the Racestar uses a "one bolt pattern fits all" design using just an offset washer to center the wheel to the hub.
