Did you weigh the wheels yourself? I emailed the vendor and they state that these wheels weigh 23.5 lbs front and 25.9 lbs rear???

Are you referring to the OEM 18" wheels or the 19's in question?

I didn;t weigh them myself.. I remember I read somewhere..but yea the weight was around that figure.. 1 pound difference isn't significant..
