I resisted the temptation to go wider or larger, so I kept them at stock size: 15" x 5,5
However, now I have only one steel wheel left: the donut.
The donut is around 8 kg. But it would appear it's quite difficult to find
a "light weight" donut with bolt pattern 4x100 and 15" (would 14" be acceptable? when
you have 15" wheels)
Greetings

Welkom!
I think 8 kg is not that much! You would rather not have it there at all, but if you have to. Even if you would find a light weight spare wheel, it would still be 4 or more likely 6 kg, so you lost 2 kg. There are more easier and cheaper ways to lose 2 kg
