Default Volks GT-7 Weight

Could someone please give me the weights of the 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 Volk GT-7s? I really don't want to hear words like "about" and "approxiametely" when giving the answer. I've called about six places and the weights have ranged from 19.5 to 23 lbs for the 19x8.5s and 20.5 and 25 for the 19x9.5s. I even heard "about" 30lbs. Why so many different weights? I guess businesses think they could tell you just about anything. I'm not going to mention names, but you shouldn't be selling a product you don't know about. Even 2 lbs is a big deal to me. Could an actual owner of these wheels actually weigh them or maybe weighed them before installation?

19" TEs weigh around 19-21 lbs, so the GT-7's are going to be heavier than that, somewhere between 24-26 lbs would be my estimate

bringing this post back from the dead...

I weighed my Volk GT-7, Diamond Black w/ Toyo T1S tires.

19x8.5 w/ 245/35/19 weigh 50 lbs. According to Toyo, this size tire weighs 23.8 lbs.

19x9.5 w/ 275/35/19 weigh 54 lbs. According to Toyo, this size tire weighs 27.8 lbs.

Do the math and the Volk GT-7 w/ center caps, weigh 26.2 lbs. Take into consideration that I weighed the wheel/tire combo on a bathroom scale.

If you care about weight and want Volks, then I would look at the LE-37 or TE-37s. The GT series definitely weigh more.
