In other words, they are a super lightweight wheel that should be used for track purpose only.

Or a Hummer.

Thanks for the figures. Did a quick Google and see that on the legacygt.com forum someone weighed a Spec B stock rim without balancing weights and (drum roll) it's 25.5 lbs in ye olde system.

Or 11.56 Kgs.

Spot on, Mark.

Now time to get the drill out... :lol:
