30 might be pushing it. Depends on the size of the tire probably. Go grab a bathroom scale

Even one HX wheel w/ tire would probably not weigh much less than 30 lbs.

The wheels are nearly 12 lbs each (11.75 IIRC), and tires are not light - some of the heavier 15" tires are even up in the 20-21 lbs range.
