The exact weight of SSR Type-C 15x7.5 inch wheels?
I can't remember for sure, but I think mine was about 10-11 lbs each.
BTW, I might be selling mine shortly if you're looking for some, but then again, who would ship wheels from Hawaii to Austria?

Tirerack doesn't sell the wheels he's asking about, though.
The ones he's asking about are +38 and 7.5" wide.
I got mine off of Mstewar's race car. Maybe he's weighed them.

I know they don't sell the exact wheels, but I'm giving you specs for the same wheel but slightly different sizes. There's no way they weigh more than 11lbs which is the weight on the 16x7s.

Mine are the 15 x 7.5 and I just weighed them at about 10 lbs even on a weightroom scale which is probably off (with old wheel weights still on them and their metal stem).
From the Tirerack site:
Size Selected: 15x7.5
Price: $289 each
Estimated Availability: In Stock
Recommended Tire Size: 195/55-15
Wheel Offset: +43mm
** Lightweight: 11.1 lbs. **

P.S. looks like the offset on these is +43 George.

this rim and the Advan RG are the only 2 rims which have enough offset and are 7.5inchers for some DRAG slicks. No more 8x15 inch rims in 40+ offsets are made what http://www.takakaira.com told me. Not the Volk te37 and the Advan rg in 15x8 has offset 30mm

I know you do a lot of research these days, so I'd like to ask you why you went the Yoko route instead of the many others available to you?

I just remembered that I observed weight marks on my wheels.
I grabbed one from the garage, and according to how the wheel is marked, a 15x7.5 Type C that is drilled for five studs weighs 505 KG.
I am assuming that there is a missing decimal point, which would make the wheel weigh 11.13 English pounds avoirdupois.

I doubt those are actual wheel weights, but suggest that those numbers are indicative of "load ratings" for each of the possible lug options.
Which is why the wheels also have these markings in the lip area between the spokes:
5x100 505 KG ;
4x100 500 KG ;
a "Juu" looking character in the same area with VIA 690 KG ;
4x114.3 620 KG;
as well as SSR SSF and MADE IN JAPAN.

on another note, i can have the weight of my 15x7 with 205/50 kumho mx soon if anyone is interested (4 lug, so probably not
)
