There's no way the ATS's are 12lbs for only $140 a piece. OZ Superleggera's at 17 x 7 are not that light and cost way more.

Exactly my point.
I am weighting (pun intended) to get an answer from him to my question...
If 15's = 13lbs then??? 
The lightest, cheapest, decent looking 17x7.5's I have found are LM5's at ~17lbs for $130 each.
Anyone have pics of these on our car??? I searched without any luck...

Demon, I would have to say my ATS' weigh in a bit less than that. I can hold one wheel straight out from my body with one hand; honestly they feel about the same weight as a 14 or 15 lb bowling ball. All I had for weighing instruments was a crappy bathroom scale at the time and it registered about 15 lbs. FWIW...

we need to weigh these!!!
My Rotas are 17lbs for 17X7.5, which is pretty descent, and I only paid $120/wheel. . .but, the MINUTE I ruin one, I'm scrwed, since they were custom-drilled on GB. . .so I shall weight, Chknwk, can you weight them for real? wheelweights.net has 'em at 13lbs as Demon mentioned for the 15, so I would surmise that they should weight in like 16lbs. . .

Did you get 15's???
~~~on a related note to this thread~~~
How can so many people post grossly different weights for the same rims?

We know which one of those is correct though.
I'd take 4 corner digital balance scales over anything every time.
