Default how much do 20" SS wheels weigh?

i love this site... so much information!

i was thinking of trading up to some of the stock 20" SS silverado wheels, but was wondering how much they weigh. i have the stock 16" aluminum wheels on my truck now - will the 20s kill performance?

are the SS wheels aluminum? or are they just painted grey?

I went from my stock 17 inch Denali wheels to 20 inch Centerlines (aluminum) and the 20's with tires were just 1.5lbs heavier each....if that helps you any.
