At a guess, I'd say 20kg per wheel/tyre combo.

My OZ P-WRC1 wheels were around 9kg and an 18" tyre is a good 10kg.

Just sold some Bridgestone potenza's 225/45/17 and they weighed 14kg each.

Cost me £40 to send the four with Postvan.com

Superleggeras are a lot lighter than the equivalent P1 type wheel. I don't know the actual weights involved but i've got both and there is a significant difference. Given the bridgestone weights above I 'd say that 20 k per wheel/tyre combo makes sense
