SL65 wheel weight question...

Has anyone ever had the chance to find out what the stock wheels actually weigh?
I've been hearing that they are boat anchors and I'm wondering if that's true before I go spending big coin on lighter wheels.

SL65, 427 COBRA (CSX-3127)73 911S, 246GTS (DINO SPYDER), CORNICHE,1962 PORSCHE TWIN GRILLE ROADSTER+
35-37 LBS PER WHEEL

THE SL65 WHEELS ARE VERY HEAVY @ 35-37 LBS PER WHEEL... THEY ARE NICE LOOKING BUT ALOT OF MONEY FOR WHEELS THAT ARE HEAVY PRONE TO BENDING/FLAT SPOTTING WHEN HITTING A POT HOLE.
