Well, then, we'll go with his answer, though those wheels feel a LOT heavier. Mebbee Honda needs to put him on their Customer Support line because it took them quite some time to come back with "I dunno". Their suggestion was "stand on a scale holding the wheel and then subtract your weight from that weight"

FYI,
The S2k MY04 17" wheels weights are:
Front (7" wide): 7.97kg (17.6#)
Rear (8.5"wide): 9.32kg (20.5#)

That is not bad at all for stock rims. I may just pick up a second set them for autoX.

F.Y.I. The 2004 rims may look heavier. But what you can't see is that the spokes are hollowed out. If you feel around the back of them, you can stick your fingers into them a inch or so.
