Expert Reply:
The aluminum wheel #LH45FR weighs about 1 pounds less than the comparable steel wheel # AM20132 if you look at the shipping weight. But in reality, the weights are closer with the steel wheels being just a little heavier. If you want to go with the lightest option, I would go aluminum.
