Weight of factory wheels and tires

Has anyone who swapped up to aftermarket rims taken the time to weigh the factory wheels and tires on their P5. If someone doesn't already have this info, I'll just yank mine off and weigh it. I just want to make sure that I don't add a lot of weight with new wheels. I'd like to save weight, but not everyone can afford TE-37s.

Wow!! That much?! Should be easy to come in lighter than that, even with 17s.

I realize that, but even my stock 16" rims on the eclipse that are 7.5" wide with 225 series tires weigh less than 38 lbs.
