^ True. And with the addition of helium inflation and cross-drilling the spokes for further weight reduction, you could shave another 5-10 lbs. Note that doing so will reduce structural integrity of the wheels, so leaving them to bake in the sun for a few days is necessary to harden the molecules of the alloy and increase its strength.

Seems there is much room for improvements. Lighter forged wheels and elimination of the run-flats should save some unsprung weight
