Not feeling it either; plus it makes the brakes look WAY too small.

My guess: 18"

They look like 18" wheels to me. Note that the back wheels have the same shallow rake angle as the front. AC Schnitzer does make several 8.5"-wide variants of the 19" Type IV with different offset combinations, but the back wheels here are definitely not the 9.5"-wide model.

For comparison, see my set of 19" (8.5" front, 9.5" rear) Type IVs. Note the evident rake angle of the back wheels.

Sorry, I do not. I had inquired with my dealer about the weight beforehand. His response did make some sense, which was something to the effect of, "If that's really your concern, you'd do better to stick with a forged wheel." He consoled me that the Type IVs at least weren't in the obscene range of the original Breyton Vision -- another wheel I had considered.

Than what? I'm not sure how to answer that. I have never weighed them, and AC Schnitzer wasn't providing weight specifications as of when I bought mine. Perhaps someone else here has done the measurement.
