I've never weighed them myself, but I've seen posted multiple times that the 08/09 wheels weigh 23 lbs front and 27 lbs rear

this is actually correct. i remember weighing mine in at 23 lbs front and 27.xx in rear but not enough to be rounded to 28.

ISFPOWER is pretty close when comparing them to this thread

https://www.clublexus.com/forums/is-...rt-sa-67r.html

"29 lbs for the rear and 23 lbs for the front" for the 2008-2010 models

It is a hassle, but if anyone who has a 12-14 has just purchased new tires, you can take the tire/wheel off of the car, weigh it and then post your results. A decent bathroom scale should do the trick. Then look up the spec weights for the tires and subtract out the tire weight. Not perfect, but it should get you close. Don't forget to consider wheel weights, TPMS sensors, etc. if they apply in your case.

I removed my wheels the other day (2012) and they shocked me at how light they felt. The fronts are wrapped in 235/40/19 PSS at the moment which isn't exactly the lightest tire either. I was curious so I searched and found this thread but alas I don't think the information is out there on the forum. I'll weigh them the next chance I get. I'm installing brand new PSS in a little bit so it should be pretty accurate.

My stock wheel weights changed when they balanced my new tires.

Oh, weight...
