Stock wheels are in the upper 20's I believe. Wanna say like 28ish. Is that just wheels and no tires mounted?

That's ONE wheel!?!? Wow that's a lot!
You said "wheels" so I thought you meant both front ones.

Are you sure you weighed it correctly? Ive never even heard of a wheel so heavy that fit our cars

Now I'm getting second thoughts , to make sure , I'm gonna weight the stock 17" (w/tires) to see how big the difference is , using same scale .
should clear it up I guess.

I guess the rears may add 1KG ? .
I really hadn't got the chance yet to take some descent pics , I promise I will .
My advans I ordered is 11-12kg each, with the box.
