I left the back tint there because I use my disco for hunting.

How significant is the weight difference between steels and the stickers?

Depends on the steel rims, if you have the Series rims like me they are solid steel and very heavy, the NATO's are lighter, the spare steel is lighter yet.
Basically the more holes the lighter the rim.

Don't forget the steel gauge. I have a set of 15 x 8 NATO wheels and they weigh a lot! But, they weigh a lot as they are heavy duty, Gulf Coast wheels (they are for sale by the way...)

I've never seen 15" NATO wheels. What's the PN (will be stamped in the wheel)?

Here is a picture of the stamping. That is what I was told when I bought them. I ended getting a set of 16" as they had tires on them already. Any info you may have would be appreciated - hell,flame away!
