Please clarify that statement a little better. An 18x11 Fikse Aro probably weighs close to 20lbs. Although it is a very nice, well made wheel..
I agree. Even these wheels for the lotus that are only 16" are heavier than 7 lbs (they are a little over 8 lbs for just the front and 11 lbs for the rear).
There's no way they'll weight 7 pounds without being made from CF or Magnesium. Weight your wheels and tires again, then look up how heavy the tires are and sutract that. You wheels should be in the 18-25lbs range.
7 or 17 or 27 pounds no big deal. Take it in stride. You violated a couple of unwritten rules:

Cool by association or mybuddysgot. i. e. 1,300 horsepower Supra. Which BTW we cannot verify and could care less.
I love it! The whole forum gets together for the holidays to pounce on some tool! Feels like Christmas.
Oh, and the Carbon fiber wheels (Weld, I think) weigh in at what? 6.8 pounds? No way in hell those wheels are even close. Congrats to the forum on another successful calling BS and a possible teenage suicide.
