Both wheelweights.net and DRFlickner of JLB Motorsports lists them at 11.5 lbs.

I agree,wheelweights.net is more accurate than the manufacturers advertized weight,manufacturers goal is to attract prospective buyers thats why they lower the actual weight,not all manufacturers but some of them,just my $0.02 cents,!

I weighed mine when I purchased them and they were definitely under 11lbs - about 10.8lbs I would say

leandro82 is an unknown quantity at this point
40 mm offset

Is 40 mm offset okay? I was thinking of ordering Heliums and found only 15x6.5 +40.

Best price I found was here for $90 ea (+ $58 shipping):

Konig Wheels - Helium - Silver - Rims

...do places give trade-in for wheels? Not sure what I would do with my OEM alloys.

Leandro82,
I have the 15x6.5 , 40 mm offset with Falken ZE512 tires 195x50x15
and they look good and no issues at all.
But mine are Black on White Sport

Hope this helps AC

Thanks, that looks like a great deal! I am getting GF210 drop too, do you think that will cause any issues?

Edit - just read thru that thread. Seems like +40 with GF210 should be okay.
