i think weight is a tricky thing as not all rims are weighted in the same places (some have more weight at the rim itself rather than the hub bolt section) as well some tires (low profile) can have heavy belts to keep their stability and form under stress, comes with the territory of low profile high performance tires (and thus more weight at the outermost portion of the tire/wheel diameter is going to be felt first)
I personally went with 195/55/15's general exclaim uhp's, adds more grip than stock and also better stopping while also maintaining relatively similar weights.
after some research I found you can not get the exact stock tire as the aftermarket tire (same brand and type) actually weighs more.
