Oh yeah, definitely.

By some deep...deep extrapolation I have determined the wheel itself is right around, exactly 22 lbs, approximately.
Of course these are filled with nitrogen and nitrogen is a gas. And gas weighs about 7 or 8 lbs a gallon soooo....
There you go

My ordered performance package just arrived today! Already threw it on my hoist in the shop to get the OEM accessory aero put on. If anyone wants specific pics or whatever post up and I'll see what I can do.

Thank you. I hope someone gets an exact measurement. I will rip off a tire when I get one and measure them on my calibrated scale. It goes up to about 30 lbs I think, so I should get a very accurate measurement.

that seems kinda heavy. 22lbs is the guess? the oem is 20.1 about. I am running 15 lb wheels now, they make a notable difference in zip.

hopefully there will be a better measurement before I get mine in April+.

I am considering using the PP wheels for winter and getting something fanci-ish for summer, if they weigh too much. Wheels are so darn expensive though.

Just picked up my 2017 PP WRB today. Have to say, the PP is really a steal.

This may be kind of off base, but I thought it was posted in this thread or another: Does anyone remember a japanese video that showed the process of boring out an FA20 BRZ engine to a larger displacement? I can't seem to find it now, but I could swear it was somewhere here...

Edit: And of course I find it immediately in Engine & Exhaust... To make this relevant, GORGEOUS BRZ @jtaeric
