Never weighed mine but I swear they are like 10kg each. Seem fairly simialr to a bag of 10kg flour so thats my guess.

i weighed my 15 inch BBS rims with the tyres on too. they are lighweight aluminium ones, and it was like 7.5 ot 8kg from memory, so if you can find anything around that weight or lighter your probably doing well.

Thanx. Now have some idea to work on, just got a set of cheap mags.. well cause they were cheap. And I swear compared to standard wheels it is making the poor ol 4ac feeling noticably torqueless.

Got out my athroom scales. gone from standard 13 inch toyota rim at 12.kg to 17kg with these fat weighing mags.
your 8.5kg 15inch lightweights sound real good!!!!
