They are extremely light. 13.7lbs, much lighter than many aftermarket wheels.

Umm, what? Have you weighed them yourself?

Search it, they weigh 16.5 lbs, as far as I know.

Wait, you're right, I read the column wrong on the wheel weight chart. Still, at 16.5 lb they are still quite a bit lighter than many aftermarket wheels at that size, including Rotas and even BBS wheels.

13.7lb is what *my* wheels weigh :-)
