I don't have exact weights of bare wheels, but I do have two complete sets of wheels and tires. One set is forged Gumbys and the other is standard, painted original 5-spoke cast -- both sets with Supercar tires. By weighing each wheel & tire (complete with center cap and balancing weights) and compensating for variations in tread wear, I estimate the rear Gumbys to be approximately 2 lbs lighter than the 5-spoke cast painted rears; fronts are approximately 1.6 lbs lighter.
Hope this helps,
