Question Stock FD wheels: 92 vs. 93

I just bought a set of stock FD wheels for my mkII MR2. I've had them for about a week, but I just noticed that 3 of them are 92 wheels, and one is a 93. The 93 is the reinforced type and looks different on the inside. Is there a weight difference with the wheels? Will my one odd wheel make any kind of difference? Thanks guys!

92-93 wheels are the same.

94 + wheels are reinforced.

Use your bathroom scale to compare.

The 4th wheel, the odd one, is obviously different. It is reinforced, but my question is if it will make a difference to have one different wheel?

Correction. Late '93 wheels and up were reinforced.

The early brittle wheels weighed ~13.8lbs.; the later reinforced wheels were a little heavier @ ~15.4.
