I am amused by the jokes about the weight of the paint. But it does add weight to the wheel. In some cases up to half a pound per wheel.
No, its not a lot. But if you switch to Titanium wheel bolts, that's all you will save, 7 to 8 ounces.
We work like very hard in our FEA system to shed any weight that is just not needed so that we can offer the lightest product out there. It's what you guys remind me of all the time.
So, we found an anodizer that can put a nice, very hard finish on the wheel and add no weight.
Let me know if you need wheels and I will take care of you.
As long as you want light weight ones that is.
