They look like they should be very light, maybe that's the point?
Like to see the Police use a 'stinger' on those

You've got to admit they have a sense of humour / irony demonstrating it on an Audi, considering the RS4 had this ability to deform its wheels already a few years ago

Hopefully the inner structure is only exposed to show off the technology because apart from looking crap, just imagine the amount of dirt/mud that will stick inside and cause wheel imbalance.
