If you buy aftermarket alloy wheels...

Two questions - what does the stock 15" steelie weigh? and what happens if the alloy wheel doesn't accept the tpms?

Both questions have been answered multiple times before. I encourage you to give the search function a try.

Thanks for your help!

I have been searching and have not found the answers yet.

OK based on what I could find, the the stock alloy rims with tires weigh 34 lbs.
As far as the TPMS issue, check out this thread and go from there.

Unless that's referring to stock aluminum wheels, but it sounds too heavy for that...

My stock steelies weighed 15.35 lbs alone and 16.25 lbs with the hubcap.

My stock Goodyear Eagle LS tires weighed 17.05 lbs.

As for the TPWS question, you can bypass the TPWS system to keep the light from driving you nuts:
