Hi Steve,
They are ~ 54-61#s with a tire, and sub 25#s with out. We have a few different combos here, but they are not grossly overweight, right on par with a stock OEM C6 wheel.

nice looking rims!
hmm, my 18" -chromed- iForged rims/tires combo weighs in at right around 50lbs each with Michelin PS2's mounted. 18x9.5 front with 265/35/18 tire and a 18x10.5 rear with a 295/30/18 tire.
I thought mine were getting up there in weight....
Steve, what does your CCW wheels/tires weigh??

yeah, I have mine off the car and in my spare bedroom, so I will weigh them again when I get home....but I -thought- they were around 50lbs ea.. Maybe I am wrong......
I will weigh them when I get home though and post up the results
edit:
OK, here are what they weigh:
Front:
18x9.5 rim, 265/35/18 Michelin PS2 tire: 48.5 lbs
Rear:
18x10.5 rim, 295/30/18 Michelin PS2 tire: 49.5 lbs
I weighed my tires brand new and they weighed 25 lbs front and 26 lbs rear, just like what Tirerack has them listed as.

Hi Guys, these weights are all from C6 run flat tires which are significantly higher than standard tires. The wheel weights are with in 2 pounds of the majority of the wheels out there. Tire tread depth, and profile play a large part in tire weight so we are comparing apples to oranges here.
Regardless, my car looks great with them on there, I just have to put some LG Superspings on it

Chrome and almost any color option given a few more days lead time for delivery.
Price is 1995 with out shipping. Preorders will receive free shipping which is about a 140$ savings.
Thanks

Yes, but at the moment, we are working on just getting the wheels released at this point in an 18x10 for all 4. We are having a few more spoke designs and offsets/widths coming down the pipeline and there will be a 18 or 19x11 in there somewhere.
